Teach ICT web hosting

We are proud to offer our very own web hosting service excusively to schools. (And we think we offer a pretty good deal)

We have found that having readily available webspace is great to really switch pupils on to the workings of the internet and with our control panel it is simple to configure your domain, email and installed packages. Our A-level pupils in particular have enjoyed developing their subdomains with online shops, content management systems, their own blog sites and configuring their own email accounts

Many hosting companies only accept payments by credit cards but we can invoice your school directly once you have supplied us with your required domain name address details and order number - Contact Us for further information.
