“As Queensland’s first Grammar School, Ipswich Grammar School opened its doors in 1863, and boasts just under 1200 students and 190 staff.
The previous I.T. Manager Ray Pearson had done lots of research into possibilities and established a framework or readiness for these possibilities. This included a long standing partner in BES IT Systems to take us there. In September 2006 with some ‘tired’ technology and a new ICT Services Manager, Ipswich Grammar School looked to replace and extend the existing devices starting with teacher laptop/tablet pc program and additional computer rooms from the start of 2007. IGS seeks to integrate ICT into all subjects across the curriculum from Prep to Year 12, in an attempt to give the boys every chance to use technology in the “real world”.
There is a very high expectation of what we can deliver. The students, parents and teachers want to be able to achieve cutting edge software, on appropriate hardware to “do cool things”. Our customers have an enterprise level of expectation to achieve with a medium size business budget, which where the total cost of ownership approach that BES IT Systems supports is so integral.
Discussions with Marketing Manager Dylan Mapp assisted in formulating a three to five year formal plan for the school, across many aspects including storage, laptops, tablet pc’s, servers and in infrastructure to support how the jigsaw would fit together for IGS over the next three plus years to our 150 year celebration in 2013.
BES IT Systems are a valuable business partner in ensuring creation and maintenance of a solid platform on which to build robust options of delivery for IGS education.
These purchases and relationships have allowed us to work smarter in delivery learning, content management, learning management and community systems to support the greater needs of IGS. With our teaching and learning strategic plan for IGS to move to 1:1 ratio by mid- 2011 with devices starting to be brought into the school from the beginning of 2010, we looking to continue our relationship with BES IT Systems as a paramount player in the provision and end to end solution for Ipswich Grammar School.”
