ABOUT
Unity Schools Partnership is a family of secondary, primary, and special schools located mainly in Suffolk, and on the Essex and Cambridgeshire borders as well as Romford in East London.
They are committed to a partnership that respects, sustains, and supports. They encourage cultural diversity, celebrate the special qualities of each of their schools and recognise that communities must develop and grow to become sustainable.
Their model is about creating interdependence – schools that are more self-sustaining than stand-alone academies, less dependent than local authority schools and more independent than schools in corporate chains.
CLIENT STORY
We worked with Unity Schools Partnership to migrate and unify their IT systems across multiple locations. Read all about it below.
The Trust required a partner that we could have complete confidence in, to deliver a very high-profile project across multiple schools, impacting over 5,000 students and 700 staff. The partner had to be able to demonstrate excellence in their approach and delivery, with a proven track record of similar projects. They had to be flexible, adaptable and able to minimise the impact on teaching and learning. Breakwater IT not only met the brief but exceeded expectations across all phases of the project from planning, through delivery and beyond into operations and ongoing support. The positive impact for the Trust and our Schools in the successful delivery of this project; on-time, in-budget and to-plan has been massive. It’s resolved a critical strategic issue, thus enabling the Trust to be more effective and efficient in the use of technology to deliver the Trusts strategic goals. I can’t speak more highly of Breakwater IT and their staff and would highly recommend them.
