SchoolSuite is a collection of applications and solutions developed by
RedFox to meet the teaching and network management needs of
primary and secondary schools. It evolved from tools we created during
our early involvement with UK Schools while implementing the National Grid
for Learning strategy.
It is now over twenty years since the
NGfL
roll-out began and we are still proud to be developing tools and solutions for schools
facing some of the unique challenges that arise when integrating ICT into
the curriculum!
Some of the main network management components are listed opposite for your
delectation, but there is more to see than network management.
ShoolSuite is also an eclectic mix of apps, provisioning and management tools
for Microsoft SharePoint, productivity and communication add-ons for Microsoft
Outlook, cloud integration facilities and a collection of handy web applications.
