Haslingden Primary School Partners with Blue Orange IT to Upgrade IT Infrastructure and Enhancing Learning Experience for Students
The Challenge
Haslingden Primary School has successfully partnered with Blue Orange IT, a leading IT support company, to address the long-standing issues caused by its outdated computer suite. The school’s aging machines, which had become increasingly sluggish, were a source of frustration for both students and staff. Slow boot-up times were causing significant delays, leading to inefficiencies in the classroom and disrupting valuable learning time.
Like many educational institutions, Haslingden Primary School operates under a tight budget, making it difficult to justify the cost of a complete technology overhaul. However, when Blue Orange IT presented the HP Brighter Futures trade-in scheme, offering up to £150 cash back for each old machine traded in, the school was able to make a cost-effective transition to modern technology. This initiative provided the school with a unique opportunity to upgrade its IT infrastructure without compromising its budget.
The Solution
As part of the partnership, Blue Orange IT supplied and installed a range of new, highperformance computers designed to meet the needs of both students and teachers. The new machines offer rapid start-up times, enabling students to log in and begin their work almost instantly. This seamless and efficient experience has had a transformative effect on the school environment, significantly improving both productivity and overall satisfaction.
The upgraded technology has been met with great enthusiasm by the children, who are excited by the improved speed and performance of their new devices. Teachers have also noted the positive impact, as lessons are no longer interrupted by slow computer speeds. With faster access to learning tools and resources, children are now able to focus more on their studies, and teachers can incorporate more interactive, tech-driven lessons into their curriculum.
“We are delighted with the positive changes that this upgrade has brought to our school,” said Glyn Ellis (Headteacher of Haslingden Primary School). “Our old IT systems were holding us back, but with the support of Blue Orange IT, we’ve been able to provide our children with the tools they need to succeed. The new machines are not only faster but also more reliable, allowing our staff to run lessons more efficiently.”
The Result
Blue Orange IT’s expertise in delivering tailored IT solutions has been invaluable to the school, and their commitment to supporting educational institutions like Haslingden Primary School has made a real difference. Through their high-quality service and the HP Brighter Futures trade-in scheme, Blue Orange IT has enabled the school to modernize its IT infrastructure while staying within budget. This partnership highlights the growing importance of technological advancements in schools and the significant role that businesses like Blue Orange IT play in ensuring that classrooms are equipped to meet the needs of both students and staff. As technology continues to evolve, Haslingden Primary School is excited to embrace new innovations that will further enhance the learning experience and better prepare students for the future.
