Story

Upgrading your interactive whiteboards in your classrooms – an example:

Unless you’ve recently undertaken a whole school upgrade, whether due to age, specification or type of technology, it’s unlikely that any two classes in your school have the same equipment.  This means your school is providing different standards of teaching in different classrooms.

That’s not fair on the teachers or the learners.

Leasing your technology using a public-sector approved operating lease offers a fairer, more efficient alternative… it basically means for a similar annual cost you can equip more classrooms with the latest technology, compared with a staged upgrade. Your budget goes further.

How does it work?

Technology Lease

A school with nine classrooms may purchase three new interactive displays per year, for three years. This will usually fit with budgets allocated in an ICT Development Plan.

However – the cost to purchase one screen can be similar to funding three screens. This means for a similar annual cost to purchasing three touchscreens, you could equip nine classrooms with screens on a flexible funding programme. Fairer, and in many ways, more efficient.

You then have a range of options at the end of your initial term, giving you maximum flexibility depending on your circumstances at the time

Also, this funding programme can be used with any high-value equipment; from IT and AV, sign-in systems, school hall technology through to playground equipment, sports surfaces, LED lighting and security systems.

Public Sector Compliant Procurement

Our Lease Partners are dedicated to supporting the education sector with innovative, compliant funding solutions. You’re in safe hands with their independent approval through the Department for Education Deals for Schools, Think IT and the Crescent Purchasing Consortium. Our strong partnership means you have the support of two public-sector framework-approved organisations.

Upgrading through Technology Leasing allows you to ensure that the cost is spread as well as ensuring that you no longer cast a shadow over your teaching through the use of an Interactive Whiteboard. Maybe it is time to draw a line in the sand, we discuss the best way to go about your technology rental, from starting with a Classroom Healthcheck® to the end goal of the technology lease itself!
