Trinity ICT is a specialist technology provider for the education and training sectors. Teachers are the most important part of making an outstanding school. Technology plays its part by helping with the right tools to deliver engaging and inspirational lessons. We like to follow a full life cycle process with our partner schools. By working through the whole process we are able to ensure the schools get the maximum value for their investment.

Consultation
Our first step is to identify the objectives that are a priority with the school. Working with them and their key stakeholders we create a long term strategy for ICT that will deliver these objectives.

Deployment
In the deployment phase Trinity ICT will plan the Delivery, Installation and Configuration of any equipment or software. Working with the school we will identify any training needs for staff and deliver these as part of the commissioning.

Support
Once the technology has been deployed we like to make sure the Teachers have the
confidence and skills to use it to its full potential. Our support service means we are available to teachers for Technical support and Practical issues. All of our initial discussions are informal and carry no obligations so give us a call and see what we can do for your school.
