Closing date is Friday 19th November so you've got 5 days to decide and get your app in The school want to move things fast to ensure they get an appointment made by the time I leave.

Hi all, I'm leaving my post at The Warren Comprehensive School in Chadwell Heath (London Borough of Barking & Dagenham) so the job is being advertised. It only seems to be in local newspapers and on the council website, so here is the link: http://www.barking-dagenham.gov.uk/7-hr/schools/pdf/vacancies.pdf Scroll down to the "ICT Network Manager" As it's an RM CC4 network the school have deemed experience in RM Community Connect essential. In case you're vaguely interested I'm moving on for new challenges to a cloud & apps hosting firm in London Docklands to do senior server support at the datacantre

RM haven't published any explanations for what letters appear at the RMR prompt. Generally, if you see a different letter/sequence of letters, I'd take it as a sign that there is an issue. We've often found it's either a hard drive error or a boot issue - either way, use something like delpart.exe to wipe the drive then redeploy from a USB/CD.

I wouldn't bother with MCDST, I would look at the MCITP programmes, and possibly start with a client exam (Windows 7). Given you have 5 years experience in a networked environment and you are aiming to be a Network Manager, why would you certify as a desktop support tech? Go server admin!

Just as a general career progression, I would suggest gaining some system administration certifications such as the Microsoft certified program - it's so common that employers ask for MCP/MCSE/MCITP that it's just worth the work anyway. You can self study using virtual machnes & MS Press books and it would go a long way on your CV. In terms of the job though, it sounds like you've got adequate experience to at least apply for the Network Manager role. Technically make sure you've got a sound knowledge of AD (and how it works in relation to your RM network), DNS, DHCP - ie. the fundamentals of a network. Also start to think about how you would manage a network and the responsibility of line management to get "your head in the right place". Understand the need to document procedure, audit everything (lol). It doesn't sound like you're falling short at all - you're on the right path

I'm pretty lucky - I have about 4 miles to travel which takes about 20 minutes in the morning traffic. It's one of the best things about my job; that I can be home within half an hour of finishing work. When I start to look for a new role for progression I think that is going to be one of the things that hits me the hardest, especially given that it's looking likely that I'll have to work in London!

Goatee for me me, have had this for 10 years now! Then, I am bald and shave my head so without some facial hair I kinda look like an egg

Hey all, my name is Rhodri and I'm a network manager in the wonderful London Borough of Barking & Dagenham in East London We've got an infamous RM CC4 network here, so been plenty busy with keeping this thing running!
