Our flexible options can provide anything from a full IT managed service to supporting your internal (in-house) team. We work with you to understand your specific needs, building a truly bespoke support package, and offer the option to add additional modules to best meet your needs.

“The IT support we get from RM is absolutely excellent value for money. You receive a professional service that gives peace of mind and the reliability of technology that works”.

Single support contract

We remove the need for multiple support contracts, allowing you to have one single support contract for a wide range of technologies within your school or trust. As an extension to your in-house team, we provide peace of mind that should an issue arise, our team of experts are on hand to ensure a timely resolution so that your teaching and learning is never interrupted. Supporting thousands of school networks, our support team has an exceptionally deep experience of solving issues for a broad range of school ICT technologies.

Alternatively, you can call and speak to an engineer between 8am and 6pm Monday to Friday.
