Erasmus Darwin Academy

The new WiFi solution has delivered:

  • High speed, reliable wireless capable of managing all the school’s devices
  • Complete control and visibility of the network
  • Ability to block BYOD from the network remotely
  • Improved access to the school’s student management information system
  • Ability for students to use applications simultaneously without interruption

I initially approached Redway Networks for a network audit as I’d heard brilliant things about their service and products, and as we’re a small team with minimal resources we needed a supplier who could provide us with a one stop assistance.

The Challenge

Reliable wireless connectivity is vital for the school in terms of teaching but also for staff to manage processes. Access to student information is critical at all times, in addition to pupils using up to 550 computers, teachers using laptops and BYOD policies. The old network was causing excessive broadcast traffic, degrading the speed and coverage of the WiFi.

As a leading service provider to the education sector, Redway Networks has extensive experience in school, college and university environments and could easily troubleshoot the problems and recommend solutions that delivered performance but also the highest levels of security to safeguard confidential student records.

Through the successful delivery of a high-performance WiFi solution, Erasmus Darwin Academy now has a network that can support a supportive learning environment for over 1,000 students.
