One Week Accelerated Teams Adoption Service

We have developed a One Week Accelerated Teams Adoption Service for primary schools. This service is for primary schools that either have Office 365 and have not yet started to use Microsoft Teams or those primary schools that have taken on a limited rollout of Microsoft Teams. The service combines our deep technical understanding of the Office 365 platform, MIS synchronization and our many years of experience working alongside school leadership implementing impactful change management.

The service will ensure that:

• School Leadership have a clear understanding of the Microsoft Teams offer and develop a vision for how it can be used in their school, both short, medium and long term
• Safeguarding and security have been accounted for in the technical design
• A permanent link is created between the school MIS system and Office 365 (SIMs and Integris only) – to save many hours of management time in the future
• All staff are trained how to use Microsoft Teams for communication and for remote learning
• The school has access to ongoing Microsoft Teams and Office 365 support ensuring that staff are supported throughout the change and ongoing.

Microsoft Innovative Educator Expert (MIEE)

Our Microsoft Innovative Educator Expert Programme focuses on the Office 365 suite of applications and tools (from a teaching and learning perspective) and is designed to fit in around the busy schedules of school teachers and leaders. Sessions are online and run from the end of January through to June, culminating in an application and hopefully qualification as a Microsoft Innovative Educator Expert.
