Make Education Technology Work for You

A group of people are looking at a laptop together

You’re managing more than just networks and devices.
In education, technology isn’t just a tool — it’s part of the student experience. And you’re the one responsible for making sure it all works.


At Konverge, we understand that IT in schools comes with unique challenges:


  • Balancing budget constraints with high expectations
  • Supporting staff who aren’t always confident with tech
  • Keeping data safe while giving students and teachers freedom to learn
  • Making systems scalable across multiple campuses or departments


We’re here to help you bring it all together — so your tech empowers people, not the other way around.


You Get Solutions That Actually Fit Your School


Microsoft Intune for Education

Secure, simplify, and centralise device management — all from the cloud.


  • Roll out apps and updates across every student or staff device
  • Apply security policies that align with Department of Education standards
  • Reduce the time your team spends manually configuring laptops or tablets


“We no longer spend hours setting up devices one by one — Intune handles it at scale.”


SharePoint Intranet

Bring all your internal communication into one clean, easy-to-manage hub.


  • Post updates, events, policies and newsletters in one central place
  • Boost visibility of key info and reduce internal emails
  • Connect campuses, departments and teaching teams with a common space


“Teachers love it because they always know where to find what they need — and it actually looks like our school.”

Microsoft Copilot

Get more done in less time — thanks to built-in AI support across Word, Excel, Outlook and Teams.


  • Automate lesson plan drafts, recap meetings, or summarise policy documents
  • Personalised support for admin and leadership teams
  • Embedded AI that works with your existing Microsoft 365 tools


“Copilot is like an assistant for every staff member — it gives us back hours each week.”

Training, Support & Strategy

We don’t just set you up and disappear. You get a partner.


  • Professional development workshops for teachers and IT staff
  • On-demand support during critical project phases (or school terms)
  • Strategic advice to help future-proof your school’s technology investments


“The difference with Konverge is that they actually care if it works after go-live.”
