The challenge

Cornerstone C Of E Primary School 1

Cornerstone was working with Hampshire County Council on a new building. And so, they needed a replacement phone system that expanded their communication efforts for when they moved into their new site which opened in September 2021.

The solution

As proficient adopters of Microsoft Teams, Cornerstone contacted us to discuss how they could expand its use to include a telephony solution. Through our expert services, Cornerstone has now adopted Teams to support communication between staff members and interact with their pupils for homeschooling.

Additionally, staff used Yealink handsets to suit more traditional users, but they can also use PC softphones or mobiles across devices to give them mobility options around school and working from home. On top of that, we also linked the neighbouring rectory to the solution for easy communication between the two.

The results

Through our Microsoft services, combining the power of Teams and Gamma for a reliable and flexible system, Cornerstone now benefits from a single pane of glass management with their communications tools accessed via the Teams platform.

“Staff can take and make calls from school phones, laptops and mobile phones from anywhere at any time within the school. The automatic recording of messages: which are then transferred into audio and text transcripts for the office team, saves time and gives greater clarity. Although we still think we can develop our uses of the system further, it has already provided multiple benefits.”
