  1. I've just been told this too, they have to use a qualifying faculty machine for more than 200 hours, not be employed more than 200 hours.
  2. We had iSAMS and Bromcom in, and to get similar products, with bolt ons to do what we need, over 3 years (Including installation) they were both more expensive.
  3. We've done this recently. Properly had demos, used and tested alternatives. They all have their own problems, and all cost more.
  4.

  5. Can you set/track/notify homework with Teams? We too are looking at moving away from Firefly next year...
  6. Was in Kendal last night, the drive down the M6 to Preston at 10.30pm was interesting!! Next door's scaffolding tower blew over onto our drive, luckily missed the cars, but took out (smashed) our bin and the daughters netball hoop on our wall. School has a flood and 2 significant leaks in our 15 year old building.....
  7. I try and avoid the conglomerate beers these days (Including Doom Bar, owned by Molsen Coors, and bottles brewed in Burton, not Cornwall!), but that's only possible because there is so much local/micro/craft stuff available near me. As for Pale (with or without fruit), if it's good, it's good. Fruit or not!
  8. Master for each block, Alarm Fob, External doors/gates Key
  9. Ours seems to work no problems. All on iOS12
  10. We had demos from 3cx, Mitel and went with Avaya.
  11. "We" don't make the rules :-)
  12. The Outlook app, as far as I can see, is Notifications or not. No "Peak" times etc. Unfortunately this is the only way we let people access mail on mobile devices (GDPR etc etc) so there is no schedule to set.
  13. We use Startech docks, work with almost anything
  14. HP AiO from ICT Direct
  15. It's me here, with a couple of (poor) students.
  16. The last 2 inspections here, all they wanted was WiFi and a printer. We didn't see them besides that.
  17. Think you need Enterprise Mobility
  18. Synology NAS (212, pretty old but fine) in my AV cupboard under TV. ALll families home drives, plus music and video libraries on it. 3 PC's, 2 TV's, 2 Yamaha amps all hard wired, everything else wifi on Sky Q router and TP link Archer Access Point, with 1gb switches dotted around!
  19. Due to cost, we use InTune here. We used Meraki previously. It does everything we need it to, albeit ours is a 1:1 scheme and very few are shared.
  20. Canning technology is a lot better now, and all cans have a plastic coating inside that stops the tinny taste now. Also, (shelved) beers worst enemy is light, so cans are actually better than bottles in many cases now.
  21. Pale are easier drinking, and can attract the "lager" crew. I'm an avid beer fan, CAMRA member, have shares in several breweries and am a Brewdog investor. In my 30 years of drinking I've always preferred lighter beers. Real Ales yes, but Blondes, Pales or IPA's. I DO appreciate a good stout or porter, but I would rather have hops than malt as the linger. I think pales will stay as much as now, but Milk Stout/Nitro Stout is certainly coming in a big way. And of interest, several "Craft" keg breweries are now starting to sell cask, most notably Cloudwater and Brewdog.
  22. Our sports hall is possibly half as much again, we have a trolley with speakers attached, and we set it up so they face the short side, rather than lengthways. It's used everyday. Laptop, Proj, active speakers and mic all on trolley, Painted "screen" on wall. Having the speakers central and smaller helps, single point of sound. Assembly every morning and it works OK. We have another trolley, identical, that's set up in the gym every morning too, bit smaller than yours. Main Hall has everything built in. We have 4 assemblies concurrently every day (4th in a new kitted out dining block)! I'll get some photos next week.
  23. After this thread I double checked my Green Flag through my Natwest Platinum account, and it's pretty fully covering too, so thanks!
  24. I use Greenflag, included in my Natwest Bank account.
