Computers have formed part of educational institutions for decades. Computer Aided Instruction was

widely accepted in schools in the 1980s. Today, computers have become the sole medium of instruction

and multiple Classroom Management Solutions are used by schools to educate students.

In addition to being a medium of instruction, computers are used for collaboration as well. Large

computer labs have been set up in schools to broadcast instructions from the teacher as well as

for student-teacher and student-student collaboration. Since the computer is the sole medium of

instruction, it is critical to have 100% computer uptime.

The increase in the number of computers have increased the workload of IT administrators who are

already facing the pressure of huge budget cuts from the government.

This white paper talks about the various challenges faced by the IT administrators in education and

recommendations to overcome them.

UMC has 150 computers and five servers in the office. A constant challenge faced by IT staff was unauthorized software installation. The manual inspection process affected the IT team’s ability to focus on other critical IT projects. Faronics Deep Freeze solved their problem.

Facing an increasing number of threats and stricter business regulations, organisations are continually challenged with ensuring that security and compliance across the IT infrastructure is sufficient.
