Northern Grid guarantees low prices and excellent service, help us make sure future offerings continue to meet your needs
Northern Grid has been providing broadband and services to schools and local authorities since 1999. By working closely with partners across the region we can ensure that our services are high quality, low cost and provide excellent value for money.
The current broadband contract, with Easynet, runs until 2012 and ensured that prices were fixed. This means that recent price rises were not passed on to schools.
We are procuring the new contract now and this will run from 2012 until 2015. Again prices will be fixed for the duration of the contract so schools will know what costs will be and be able to plan effectively.
As with the current contract Northern Grid wants to ensure that our services meet the needs of schools. A broadband connection isn’t enough, it needs to be safe, secure and reliable. Northern Grid provides a range of services including: filtering, firewalls, monitoring, reporting, learning support, online resources, Learning Platforms, examples of best practice, eSafety and eSecurity guidance and technical support.
Details of all of our services can be found at www.northerngrid.org/services
We want to make sure the services we provide continue to meet the needs of our users. The procurement will involve a consultation process and we will welcome the involvement of schools.
