Introduction to
Capita’s support
services for schools
Dear Headteacher,
I am contacting you this December to advise you on the changes
Capita are making to the support services that will be offered to your
school or academy from April 2014.
Through the Capita West Sussex partnership, we offer a range of support services
for your pupils, teachers and support staff. Our service is designed to offer schools
and academies across the region more cost effective and smarter support services. In
turn, you can get the most from your support budgets, provide a first-class service to
students and focus on what’s most important – teaching.
Capita IT Services is a specialist ICT partner in the education sector. We work with over 2,500
schools, academies and colleges across the UK supporting over 420,000 teachers and learners. With
over 30 years’ experience in the education sector, we understand how to make IT work for schools,
academies and colleges.
At Capita IT Services we:
• Work in partnership with schools, academies and colleges to support their strategy and plans
• Understand how ICT can transform curriculum delivery anytime, anyplace and from any device
•D
esign and deliver technology solutions to meet individual requirements and provide on-going support through
consultation, implementation and transition
• Focus on supporting our customers in creating a reliable and an innovative IT environment
• Help schools, academies and colleges understand and plan for the adoption of cloud services
What's changing?
Here are the notable changes for the IT SLAs introduced for the new 2014 term:
SLA or service component
What’s changing?
Benefits to school or academy
Broadband and WSGFL services
for schools and academies
It will be split into two distinct SLAs:
• S chools and academies can choose
which service they wish to buy to suit
their needs. For example, if the school
doesn’t need the hosted services, it can
simply buy the broadband and WAN
connectivity or vice versa*.
1) B
roadband and wide area
network services
The demand for pupils to achieve more in education has never been higher, nor school
budgets so stretched. The education sector is also facing huge changes, from the
introduction of a new academy programme and an Ofsted framework through to the
introduction of EBacc, a new yardstick for assessing secondary schools
During 2013, the Capita West Sussex partnership has been working hard to
understand these changes and how our services can best support your school moving
into 2014. We have undertaken a review of the components that make up our support
services for schools and academies. As a result, we have re-structured these services
to bring you a greater degree of choice and a transparency of cost. Thank you for all
the robust feedback from you and your colleagues which has supported this process.
and
2) Schools hosted IT services
*For 2014 the Web Filtering Solution
is still dependant on the West Sussex
Broadband and Wide Area Network
Service.

This brochure summarises the range of ICT, HR and SIMs services that Capita is able
to offer. It draws on our experience of improving support services for thousands of
schools and academies across the country since the 1980s.
NEW
Introduction of a greater range of
connectivity options for primary
schools
We look forward to developing our relationship with you into 2014/15.
Mary C lare Deane
Capita WSCC Partnership Director
•U
p to 10 Megabit per second (Mb/s)
connections for 95% of primary schools
with the option to upgrade for any
schools that have increased demand for
internet based services.
•B
onded DSL is connectivity specifically
for those hard to reach schools in rural
areas that were formerly connected via
BT Learning Stream Circuits. This will
offer faster speeds of between 8 – 20
Mb/s which is a significant improvement
on the Learning Stream speed of 2 Mb/s.
We hope you find this information useful and choose to use Capita’s support services
in the coming year. If you would like any further information please refer to the
contact us page in the brochure. The full range of Capita and West Sussex SLA’s will
be published on the WSGFL in January, and you will have two months to make your
decision and purchase.
Yours faithfully,
• Transparency of component cost
for each service (this was previously
provided in a single unit cost)
Broadband and Wide Area
Network services
NEW
Now offering both one year and
three year SLA terms
• The three year SLA offers schools a fixed
price service, which means there isn’t
a price increase within the term of the
agreement.
• P rimary schools subscribing to a three
year SLA also receive a free upgrade to
30Mb/s connection (this does not apply
to hard to reach schools)

that offer competitive pricing on a range of IT
products commonly used within schools
• We can provide you with advice around what
products are right for your circumstances
and help you to build an end-to-end solution
for your school that will be scalable and
robust. We can also train you in how to use
and support your systems as educators and
administrative support staff
• One year SLA offers flexibility to those
schools wishing to consider their options over
the coming year
• Three year SLA offers schools a fixed price
service, which means there isn’t a price
increase within the terms of the agreement.
The benefits are:
• E nsure that both School and Capita
expectations are understood and met.
• Any termination costs kept to a
minimum.
• E liminates risk of withdrawing service
from schools that complete the buyback
form incorrectly.
Services withdrawn
Video conference service
System logs have shown that schools no longer use the WSGFL video conferencing service as they
start to use other mainstream services therefore the service will be withdrawn from April 2014.
SIMS Learning Gateway –
component of broadband and
WSGFL hosted services
Uptake of this AtomWide-hosted WSGFL service element is very low. It will therefore be removed
from the Service Level Agreements for 2014/15. However, Capita children’s services are contacting
each school that is using SLG to discuss how they can transfer to the company’s nationally provided
hosted service instead.
Data Exchange and Remote
Support
This SLA has been withdrawn for 2014 however data transfer and remote support will be still
available through existing provisions. ITS Support for these services for schools and academies that
do not take the Broadband and Wide Area Networks Service will be chargeable at the rates outlined
in the Schools IT Support Service.
Capita IT Services summary
Broadband and Wide Area Network services summary – restructured for 2014
The Broadband and Wide Area Network (WAN) services SLA provides the infrastructure to connect your establishment to a range of services
on the internet and the local West Sussex County Council wide area network. This managed service offers you fast connection speeds, together
with a managed firewall security service that enables secure sites to site communication across the school’s wide area network. This service
also provides the direct authority for school remote control service used by the Schools Financial Support Team and ICT Services.
Service key features
Resilient internet connectivity – our
network offers synchronous data
transmission/reception speeds of up to
10Mb/s or 30Mb/s for primary schools and
100Mb/s for secondary schools
Managed IP address range – your school
is allocated a range of unique IP addresses
from which connected devices can
communicate within the school wide area
network
Dynamic host configuration protocol
(DHCP) – the Capita WAN router
dynamically allocates IP addresses within
a specified range from the router that
connects the school network to the West
Sussex schools WAN.
School network access configuration
changes – offering the balance of
functionality versus security – if a school
wishes to use new services across the
internet the Capita team will assess the
request from both technical security and
child-safeguarding perspectives to give you
ultimate peace of mind that your data and
learners are safe when online
Remote support via DameWare mini
remote control – schools on the West
Sussex Wide Area Network are able
to receive support from West Sussex
Capita partnership services via the use of
DameWare mini remote control. Schools
who do not subscribe to this service are
required to make alternative arrangements
for secure remote support
Schools data exchange – secure file
transfer service enabling the school and
local authority to exchange sensitive data
relating to pupil and staff information. This
is performed using the Avco Anycomms and

Schools hosted IT Services new for 2014
In October 2013, the West Sussex Schools
Forum endorsed a decision to migrate from
the former AtomWide WSGFL solution to
the Capita OPENHIVE Suite. OPENHIVE
Services offer you hosted services that are
highly resilient, highly performing, scalable
and give you increased control of your
services.
To keep year one costs down to an
affordable level for schools and academies
in 2014. the cost of migration from the
AtomWide Service to OPENHIVE will be
spread over the next five years.
OPENHIVE offers a range of excellent
online services for schools. Many of the
services we are introducing offer you direct
and improved replacements to the former
WSGFL service. A number of other services
will also be introduced to you by 2015/16.
Service key features:
Account and identity
management
Never has managing your user estate been
so easy - OPENHIVEid is an automated
service that uses the staff and pupil data
you hold in SIMS to create and manage the
user accounts and groups for access to all
OPENHIVE services
Web filtering solution (site
level internet filtering solution)
The service is designed to be flexible by
providing different levels of granularity; it
offers a high standard of protection whilst
not hampering staff or pupils internet use
(which can often be a problem because
of overly ridged filtering policies). To help
schools get the most from this service we
give schools the ability to manage and
change web filtering to meet their own
requirements.
Please note: for 2014 the OPENHIVEwebshield
Web Filtering Service remains dependent on
the School taking the Broadband and Wide
Area Network services SLA.
Moodle service hosting
Staff and student email
(including email filtering)
MoodleDo provides the following modules
in a fully managed and supported
environment:
• Assignments
• Forums
• Questionnaires and surveys

a well-regarded email service for both
staff and learners based on the Microsoft
Office 365 email system. This cloud-based
service offers full email filtering and virus
protection, abundant managed/resilient
storage and a familiar user friendly interface
that is intuitive to even the newest user.

OPENHIVEshare web site hosting is a
fully managed service, hosted on robust
and resilient architecture, supported by
load balancing and replication services to
maintain high availability and performance
(significant during ‘snow days’).
The Capita OPENHIVE moodledo service
frees up the school from hosting,
managing, supporting and updating its
own learning platform. Like all OPENHIVE
services described in this document user
account provisioning is fully integrated with
a school’s MIS system through OPENHIVEid
automatically, rather than having to
manually create user accounts and class
associations.
Domain Name Service (DNS)
management
The Domain Name Service (DNS) is the
way in which the network address of your
school’s internet services are given a reader
friendly name. OPENHIVE resolve provides
your school with the service to manage your
schools website and moodle presence on the
internet allowing it to be located by parents,
learners and staff using its domain name (for
example, Myschool.w-sussex.sch.uk).
