About ICT4Education
ICT4Education was created to meet a clear need within the education sector: dependable, affordable IT support that schools can understand, plan for, and rely on.
While many IT providers offer unmanaged on site resource focused services, this approach is often poorly suited to schools that need clarity, consistency, value, and faster responses. ICT4Education takes a different path, offering structured IT support designed specifically for primary schools and small to medium secondary schools across Essex & Suffolk.
Built on Proven Experience
ICT4Education is backed by Agile Technical Solutions, an established IT provider with over 15 years’ experience delivering professional IT services. That experience underpins everything we do, from our technical standards to our support processes and service delivery.
By creating a dedicated education-focused brand, we are able to apply that experience in a way that better fits the needs and budgets of schools, without compromising on reliability or professionalism.
Designed for Schools & Academy Trusts
Schools face unique pressures: safeguarding responsibilities, tight budgets, limited internal IT capacity, and the need to demonstrate value to governors and stakeholders. ICT4Education has been designed with those realities in mind.
Our services are:
- Clearly defined and easy to compare
- Predictable in cost and scope
- Focused on reducing risk and disruption
We avoid unnecessary complexity and communicate in plain english, ensuring Headteachers and School Business Managers always know where they stand.
Putting Schools in Control
At the heart of ICT4Education is a simple principle: schools should choose the IT support that fits them, not be forced into a package that does not.
Our four service levels give schools full visibility and control, allowing them to select exactly what level of support they need today, with the flexibility to review and adjust as requirements change.
A Steady, Long-Term Partner
ICT4Education is not about quick wins or short-term contracts. We aim to be a steady, long-term IT partner for schools that value reliability, accountability, and clear communication.
Our goal is to support learning by ensuring the technology schools depend on is well managed, secure, and supported, quietly and consistently.

More Schools, Bigger Savings
Trusts benefit from increasing discounts when multiple schools within the Trust are supported by Agile. The Trust organisation itself also counts toward the school total.
| Number of Schools | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 or more |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trust Discount | 5% | 10% | 15% | 20% |
4 & 5-year contract commitments are frozen and immune from inflationary increases, giving Trusts complete budget certainty over the long term.
Simple, Supported Switching
If your school is close to the end of an existing IT support contract, you might not be able to switch as quickly as you like. For a limited number of customers ICT4Education removes that barrier by extending the initial free year to include the final three months of your existing contract with your old supplier. This allows schools to move to a better suited service without unnecessary delay or duplication of cost.

School Testimonials
Choosing an IT support provider is an important decision for any school. Headteachers and School Business Managers need reassurance that a provider is reliable, experienced, and able to deliver consistent support over time.
We have worked with Agile for several years to help build and maintain our large primary school’s ICT infrastructure. From major purchases and installations to regular housekeeping visits, all our needs are covered. Nick (Agile’s Managing Director) is always on hand for advice and strategic direction to help us move forwards. Agile proved to be very speedy from the moment we asked for a quote, which was very competitive, to install a server, provide a significant number of laptops on top of software updates on our existing hardware. Agile is a nice, friendly group of people who fall over themselves to ensure all work is completed as quickly as possible and to the highest standards. Their customer support is always fantastic and as a result, we have a school of over 400 children who are benefiting hugely by our greatly increased and more reliable ICT package. We would recommend Agile without hesitation.
Agile Technical Solutions have worked with Freeman over the past seven years to develop our IT systems to ensure that we have a consistent and reliable system to support teaching, learning and administration across the school. With PCs, laptops, networking and software all sourced and installed by Agile, the whole school has a reliable IT system that meets the day-to-day demands of the administration and curriculum side of our school. Agile have proved to be very competitive in their quotes for work, with all work carried out to a very high standard. The support package that Agile provides ensures the school systems are kept up to date and any issues are quickly addressed through the knowledgeable and personable technicians who work with us. We are pleased with the work that Agile has carried out and we look forward to evolving our IT further in future years.
