Education

Netavo connects UK schools, colleges and multi-academy trusts through Edu24, our education brand and the network built for education. Edu24 provides internet access, private trust networks, and online filtering and monitoring, with a service designed around the school day.

The network built for education

Edu24 exists to connect schools and colleges to the internet. Its services, its support and its maintenance calendar have been shaped around education from the outset, and not adapted from a service designed for offices.

It runs on Netavo's own network. A school dealing with Edu24 is dealing with the people who operate the network that carries its traffic.

A service that follows the school calendar

A school's connection is used hardest between the first bell and the last, and most of what a network operator does to maintain a network is ordinarily scheduled without regard to that.

Edu24 carries out service-affecting maintenance only outside school hours, and major works during the main school holidays. Engineers who attend a school are DBS checked.
