Welcome to edugeek @Bonds

no training course or degree will ever give you the preparation for working in a school.

Get this man a drink... For he speaks the truth.



Also, Welcome everyone.

Just noticed this thread!
I'm Daz, working in a school in Rawtenstall. I come mainly from a Finance background, and have always had a geeky interest in IT, furthered by the TA.
I've only worked in IT for 2-3 years with the NHS, and am currently looking at where to start qualifications wise.

Hi I'm Scott,
I'm a solutions architecht for an IT Reseller... i'm NOT here touting for business. For a few year's now i've struggled to come to terms with the fact i'm a geek but baring in mind I've met half the people on this website and I find myself catching up on industry gossip for no other reason than it amuses me, it's sadly true I can no longer walk among the normal folk. I may be of use if you've got general industry queries ... i.e. how long does it really take to get x y or z returned that sort of thing. Again i'm not touting for business so please don't make me stand outside... I'm ginger and I burn easily

Hullo

I've recently moved from a Girls Grammar School in Grantham to an Independent Girls School in Bramley, Guildford.

Love working in IT and being a positive role model for the girlys!



However, had it VERY easy at my previous position and now actually have to learn a ton of stuff including WSUS - hence why coming onto EduGeek!! lol.

Could not agree more about learning all the time in the IT trade. I am still learning now and what we geeks don't know, isn't worth knowing frankly! Between us we could answer probably any IT related question

I made you do work! Even if I never did manage to get a complete asset registry out of you.

It can't have been that easy for you anyway, cos I'm run off my feet without you now

Hello everybody,

I met someone a while back and he said he was around when edugeek first started and told me to sign up.

I'm a senior technician at a school in South East London.

I'll try and be around to help anyone if i can to make good use of the site!

Thanks to all, take care and have a good day!
