Description
The Great Schools Trust is firmly focused on helping the students of each of their academies become successful young people who have gained the necessary academic skills, intellectual habits, qualities of character and leadership traits necessary to succeed at all levels and become successful citizens in tomorrow's world. Their actions are based on the trust's fundamental belief that a high quality education is a civil right for all young people and not dependent on their family's wealth or postcode.
The project
Kings Bolton will be a new secondary Free School opening in Bolton in September 2019. Initially we will be opening in temporary accommodation for 2 years, whilst the school will grow by one group per year. As such, we will need phasing over this period as we scale in size. Once full the Academy will have 900 pupils.
We are looking for a partner to provide us with the required professional services for our new Bolton Academy which will also integrate the new systems into our existing systems at our other Academies. We will be implementing an enterprise infrastructure throughout. We do not need any hardware provided as we have a Framework agreement in place for purchasing hardware.
Our device strategy will be one-to-one with the students each having a tablet device, this needs to be integrated to the classroom AV so the pupils can project their work onto the projector/TV. Information Technology will also be a core subject at the Academy. The teachers will be provided with a Laptop and Tablet device and we'll have 11 members of SLT plus 55 teachers once the Academy is full.

1. A day rate for the following: Contract Manager, Project Manager, Senior Systems Manager, Senior Network Engineer, Junior Systems Engineer, Junior Network Engineer and MDM Engineer.
