Serco and independent schools

[wickit]

We have just heard on the grapevine that serco will not be supporting the independent sector in the near future.

 

Has anyone else heard this..........

[powdarrmonkey]

Well, they've been busy telling us about how Facility/ePortal is going to be all Silverlight and awesomesauce, so I guess they wouldn't bother if they weren't going to sell it to us.

[Sarconia]

I've not heard anything along those lines.

 

Would there be any reason why?

[KK20]

new ISC returns perhaps?

[wickit]

would be nice to know for sure what they are up to.....

I have passed your concerns onto my contacts at Serco and this thread.

I hope they are not going to abandon us, we spend a great deal of money with them, and will be disapointed if they do.

Serco Learning are fully comitted to supporting the independent sector. We have just written to all schools detailing some exciting changes to enable us to maintain the highest level of service.

Thank you for coming on so quick to reply to this question Paul.

 

For those who don't know (or can't be bothered to view his profile), Paul is the Product Manager for Serco Learning so is a man in the know.

 

After a conversation with Serco (admittedly not Paul), I am sure Independent Schools will be very happy Serco customers for the coming future, so you can all sleep easily now and not worry.
