Vohkus has an extensive partnership portfolio meaning we can be vendor agnostic, providing you with technology which fits your needs, specification and budget.
We are one of the UK’s fastest growing Information Technology companies, achieving consistent organic growth year on year. The commercial stature and the partnerships we have with trusted brands enables us to provide schools with great value for money. Vohkus has the huge commercial resource, infrastructure and breadth of expertise to provide schools with outstanding service. All our engineers and consultants are DBS checked for your peace of mind.
At Vohkus we understand that IT requirements can vary considerably between academic institutions, however, we deliver outsourced IT support and consultancy to all sizes of organisation. For smaller educational institutions, our experienced professionals can maintain and deliver the entire IT provision, including initial planning stages, on-going network support, and infrastructure management. And, for larger schools and colleges, where IT provision is in-house, we can continually troubleshoot any problems and provide advice and support in the case of infrastructural change.
We work holistically with schools to identify all the IT projects (technical and non-technical), assess their interdependencies and help schools to make a realistic plan to achieve their goals successfully. But if a project hasn’t gone quite to plan, we can give you the much-needed boost of resource and expertise to get things back on track.

Sometimes a good decision to adopt a new piece of software or a new device has an impact which leads to a whole lot of IT projects which you hadn’t planned or budgeted for. It becomes an expensive and demoralising exercise.
Vohkus has huge commercial resource and infrastructure behind its services and products. With a broad range of experience, we're able to quickly solve the problems in complex education environments where there are technical interdependencies.
3 IT challenges commonly seen in schools:
1. Unplanned IT expenditure.
Whether its due to equipment failure or a new IT initiative that wasn’t in the budget Vohkus can help with creative financial solutions, turn CAPEX into OPEX and even delay invoicing until the end of the year.
2. End to end upgrade.
Years of underinvestment can catch up with a school all at once. We can plan, support and help you roll out sustainable programme of upgrade to provision your whole school IT strategy.
3. Under-utilised or under-optimised software.
M365 can do so much more to improve your school’s efficiency and productivity. We have the expertise to configure M365 to your requirements and we can provide training for your IT team and users. We can build you a bespoke VLE in Sharepoint. There are many application options out there for education in addition to your core MIS and we work with you navigate this minefield and provide project management.
Our free review includes a high-level technical health check which can encompass: Internet reliability and connectivity, network infrastructure, wireless network, configuration, operating systems, applications, printing, security, backup and disaster recovery.
This, together with discussions with appropriate staff and stakeholders, means that our recommendations are not made in isolation. Our aim is to understand your vision and strategy for IT and also to assess the help desk mechanism for users, review third party support, assess the usage and suitability of administrative and academic software.
