Benefits for the IT team

The Everest Azure Cloud solution can provide significant cost savings for pressured IT budgets in your school. Everest greatly simplifies the complexity of IT provisions required for teachers to perform their duties. Schools can dramatically reduce the number of applications they need to support and often can eliminate the need for expensive legacy remote access solutions such as Microsoft Remote Desktop Services and Citrix typically used to allow teachers to work from home.

Benefits for the SLT

Everest is intuitive and is proven to require minimal training for staff. As a result, the onboarding and change management burden is refreshingly light. This drives further efficiency for teachers providing more time for teaching and learning.

Everest will provide senior leaders with insight, helping them with their management duties on areas such as attendance, behaviour and achievements, assessment and more. For MATS, school groups and education bodies we can build centralise reporting dashboards (E-Insight) to give an overarching view of school data.

Everest is built to work with groups of schools and allows central access to each Everest installation.

I am really enjoying using Everest. The daily class attendance is a great electronic way for me to track and monitor attendance whilst the gradebook is saving me tons of paper and time, as I can enter my formative assessments on the spot, from my iPad. This is exactly the tool that I needed.

Everest is so easy to use and everything I need to keep tabs on my school work is in one place on my phone — I love it!

Eleri - Student

As a parent of twin boys tracking homework and classes was a nightmare. The Everest software has alleviated the stress and constant asking my boys "Do you have any homework?" I find the phone app gives me instant access to these activities in a fast and efficient way. It also allows me to check on attendance, if they are late to classes, as well as looking at their merits.

Lee Madison - Parent

"I just wanted to tell you that I love the new Everest EDU365 app. It’s so easy to keep track of my daughter’s homework, to know where she is during the day, her teachers and classes. Other parents are also very appreciative to be able to log in and see what’s happening with our kids. Easy to use and very helpful."
