Yewlands Academy powers digital learning with WiFi 7
Yewlands Academy has future proofed its network with high-performance WiFi 7 that's delivering a faster, more resilient wireless experience to students and staff.
The school has over nine hundred students and a BYOD model in place so robust wireless connectivity is essential. The IT department wanted to move away from on-premises WiFi and to a cloud-managed environment that would provide robust wireless connectivity and could be managed easily from a single cloud dashboard.
The school turned to Redway Networks who recommended a Cisco Meraki WiFi 7 solution to handle the school's high-density environment with centralised cloud-management from anywhere.
Reliable WiFi Supports the School's BYOD Model
Yewlands Academy is a large, mixed secondary that prides itself on delivering a broad digital curriculum to its students.
Adam Kubica, Senior IT Officer at Yewlands Academy says:
"We have over 900 hundred students and a BYOD model in place with devices connecting simmutaneously, so the WiFi needs to be capable of supporting this environment without limitations.
"Our on-premises Cisco network needed replacing as wireless connectivity in the classrooms was unrelliable. We also wanted our WiFi to be cloud-managed instead of on-premises so we could manage the network from a single cloud dashboard."
What Yewlands Academy says about Redway Networks:
"We now have a modern wireless network with enhanced security and a resilient infrastrucuture."
