Why you should consider the cloud

School management
With more and more schools turning to cloud computing, former ICT teacher James Penney discusses three factors to remember if you are thinking about making the move to cloud services.

Cloud computing is the use of computing resources that are delivered as a service over a network such as the internet, removing the need for physical storage and applications.

From my experience working with academies, shared cloud services are the new de facto standard for federations or groups of schools working together, and this is being mirrored more widely across the UK education sector.

For schools wondering what level of cloud computing would work best for them, a good idea is to start with the outcomes and work backwards, as it is very much solution-led. 

Our physical teaching spaces, preferred methodology and school vision for learning all go towards creating learning environments, each variant with specific IT needs.
