Rep Power: 0 | Hi. My name's Ultan. I work at Manshead Upper School with Norphy. This is my first real IT job and I'm constantly living in fear of being found out, although I'm three weeks in and still employed (hurrah!!). I'm a father of one three year old, stubbornly independant girl. My partner works in a Chemical pathology lab and refuses to listen to a word I have to say about computers but expects me to understand the minutae of Calcium/Potassium balance and Liver Function Tests. I quail in the face of such indecipherable magic. |

My wife who works in a school found me this job in 2000, said I was suffering from boredom!! school had an RM network then, soon broke that!! now on a pure Server2003 system for curric and Server2000 for admin, 5 Servers, 1 CleoCache box 250 XP clients 40+ Laptops. Have an MCSE (from way back in the late 90`s) Have the posh title of ICT Manager, as I look after Cross Curricular ICT also. Looking to recruit a Technician to help with the workload ASAP, when we can get the job spec etc sorted. Roger. |

Rep Power: 18 | Hello, My name is Brian, I am employed as ICT Network Manager at Easington Community School, County Durham. Like Roger above I am a 'retread', having worked in IT for > 30 years, most of which was with IBM UK where I used to be a consultant doing various things such as mainframe disaster recovery. I retired at 50, got bored and ended up working in a school where I have been for 2.5 years busily replacing geriatric NT4 mongrel PCs with decent XP workhorses and renewing the BIG PCs which masqueraded as servers with 'proper' servers!

Rep Power: 0 | Hi All, I'm Steve, the "Deputy IT Services Manager" at Tameside College in Ashton-Under-Lyne just outside Manchester. We have a team of 5 Techies, 1 helpdesk admin, 2 network/IT managers. I am one of 2 network admins for our Win2k/Win2k3 network consisting of 25 servers, 1600 PC's, 700 Staff Users and 10000 student accounts. Been in the IT industry for 10 years and education for 5 of those, and I hate computers. Its official. Oh, I also hate any cheese, computing tutors (or IT "experts"), SAGE software, Pickles and Mylex RAID controllers! But not necessarily in that order! Favourite techie terms are "It must be an 'ID 10 T' problem", or "RTFM!" (Read the F*****g Manual!) Anyway enuff from me! Glad I've found this place as it looks as though it could come in handy, even if it's just for a whinge about the stupidity of users. |

Rep Power: 7 | Hi guys, I'm Alex and I'm the ICT Technician for a Suffolk middle school. I've been here 2 months having previously been ICT Tech in a small primary. We have ~500 pupils and 40 staff covering years 5-8. We currently have 30 workstations and 47 curriculum laptops (All XP Pro), 14 Macs (OS9, OSX) and 35 staff laptops (XP, OSX) with 2 2k3 servers (if you can call our admin machine a server), an OSX mailserver, and an office of assorted junk. But we all have one of those don't we ^^ |

![]() | Greetings all, I'm Steve, and I've kind-of escaped the school environment, having previously worked as IT Tech in a couple of local middle schools, I'm now an IT Consultant/Support-Engineer/whatever-description-fits-whatever-I'm-doing-tomorrow for a local firm on the Isle of Wight. Mainly deal with medium-sized school networks of around the 100 machines level (although we do get involved with the larger systems of quite a few of the local high-schools). In fact, DMcCoy still has one of our drill bits embedded in concrete under one of his walkways :P |
