Education Bradford

Education Bradford is a newly privatised LEA. The aim of the privatisation is to provide much more focused support and challenge to schools and to raise achievement among pupils at all levels...

Now we're not claiming FM Easy can help children with their homework, or teachers with their marking, but it has proved a great success at the core of the business, at Education Bradford's head offices. As the administration and support centre for all schools in Bradford it is important that their own systems operate smoothly and efficiently.

As part of the transition to a privately run organisation the head office relocated from a rundown old school to a modern and technologically advanced building. The new premises were bigger with more facilities and brought together a mixture of staff from different departments and locations. It became apparent that it would be very difficult to streamline the numerous procedures and paper based systems which each department used and that a new site wide system had to be introduced. In keeping with their new surroundings Education Bradford wanted a modern web based system that provided staff with the information they required in a quick and efficient manner.

FM Easy was chosen and implemented. Installation was quick and went smoothly. Staff were trained and ready to use the system within days. It was easily linked into their new intranet system.
