Efficient communication systems are an essential part of school life. However, the traditional ‘landline’ telephone network is being switched off in 2025, and every phone line in the UK will need to move to a fully digital network.
That’s where hosted telephony comes in. Hosted telephony is a cloud-based phone system that offers numerous benefits for primary schools like yours, for example:
Download our infographic to see how hosted telephony can help keep everyone in your school community connected, helping drive positive learning outcomes.
A key recommendation of the Government’s EdTech Strategy is for schools and colleges to actively consider the benefits of moving to cloud-based IT systems, especially as the ISDN switch off approaches.
Our guide ‘Maximising collaboration in UK schools’ explores some of the current challenges and opportunities being experienced in schools across the UK, and explains how NFON’s cloud communications tools can address some of education’s major pain points.
At Vital York we work in partnership with NFON, specialising in providing hosted telephony solutions to schools like yours. Our systems are cost effective and easy to use, and our team provides training and ongoing support to ensure you get the maximum benefit for your school.
