Frequently asked questions

Schools require support for classroom technology (interactive whiteboards, projectors, Chromebooks, iPads), staff laptops and desktops, MIS (Management Information Systems) like SIMS or Arbor, the school network and Wi-Fi, filtering and safeguarding tools, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, and CCTV. Many schools also manage printing fleets and VoIP phone systems.

Speedster IT configures and manages content filtering designed to align with the DfE's filtering standards under KCSIE, helping block inappropriate content across devices and networks. We also implement monitoring tools that alert DSLs to concerning online activity, maintain audit trails, and support schools in completing their annual online safety review.

A managed IT support contract provides proactive monitoring, regular maintenance, and guaranteed response times — preventing issues before they disrupt lessons. Break-fix support only responds after something fails, with no guarantee of how quickly. For schools, where downtime affects learning, managed support is strongly preferred.

Yes. Speedster IT manages Chromebooks through Google Admin Console and iPads through Apple School Manager, allowing schools to push apps, configure settings, and manage devices remotely. Devices can be wiped and re-provisioned for new students without technical involvement from teachers.

Summer is the best time for major IT projects — server replacements, network upgrades, classroom technology installations, and device refreshes. Speedster IT plans and executes these projects during school holidays so everything is ready for the new term. Monitoring and remote support continue 24/7 throughout the holidays.
