At HeyIT, we are committed to delivering innovative IT solutions that enhance communication and engagement within educational institutions. One of our recent projects involves the implementation of digital signage at Erskine Stewart's Melville Schools (ESMS), a prestigious private school in Edinburgh. Our digital signage solutions provide pupils with vital information about lunch menus, sports activities, and live sports coverage, creating a dynamic and interactive learning environment.
Who is Erskine Stewart's Melville Schools?
Erskine Stewart's Melville Schools (ESMS) is a renowned private school in Edinburgh, known for its commitment to providing a well rounded education experience. The school strives to keep pupils informed and engaged with up-to-date information on various school activities and events.
The Challenge: Enhancing Information Dissemination
ESMS needed an effective way to communicate important information to its pupils throughout the school day. Traditional methods were proving insufficient to meet the demands of a dynamic digital school environment. The school required a modern solution that could provide timely updates on lunch menus, sports centre schedules, and live sports events, all in one place.
Our Solution: Comprehensive Digital Signage
To address these needs, HeyIT implemented a comprehensive digital signage solution tailored to the specific requirements of ESMS:
Dynamic Content Display: Our digital signage displays provide real-time updates on lunch menus and sports centre schedules, ensuring that pupils have access to the latest information. This helps pupils plan their day more effectively and stay informed about school activities.
Eco Friendly Operations: Thanks to the smart management devices controlling the displays, the digital signage at ESMS can be effortlessly turned on and off at the start and end of the school day without any staff intervention. This ensures a completely zero-touch deployment and management experience for the school, enhancing efficiency and allowing staff to focus on more important tasks.
User-Friendly Management and Quick Support: The digital signage system is easy to manage, allowing school staff to quickly update and customise content as needed. Alternatively, staff are also able to contact the HeyIT helpdesk for any training and support required with the screens. This ensures that the information displayed is always relevant and accurate.
The Results: Improved Engagement and Communication
Since the installation of our digital signage, ESMS has seen significant improvements in how information is disseminated and received by pupils. The dynamic and interactive displays have made it easier for pupils to stay informed and engaged with school activities. With a recent move to individual 1-1 devices for pupils, replacing traditional notice boards with TV screens felt like the right move to make. Allowing the school to push further towards their sustainability goals and modernisation plans.
