As the educational landscape continues to evolve at pace, three leading IT service providers, Vital York Limited, NYnet and NYES Digital, have joined forces in a landmark collaboration to deliver a unique, best-in-class digital infrastructure and support offering tailored to schools and Multi-Academy Trusts (MATs) across the country.
This strategic tri-party alliance combines decades of education-specific expertise, technical innovation, and customer-first service. The result is a seamless, fully integrated solution that brings together:
As MATs continue to grow and consolidate, so too does their demand for streamlined, scalable digital environments. Increasingly, Trusts are being directed to merge leading to greater centralisation of systems, resources, and data. This collaboration is designed to meet that challenge head-on, ensuring schools can thrive with futureproofed infrastructure, seamless data access, and consistent service levels.
“As Trusts expand, their need for a resilient, high-capacity Wide Area Network (WAN) becomes critical,” said James Pawson, Technical Director at Vital. “Our partnership with NYES Digital and NYnet means we can offer schools and MATs a complete turnkey solution—one that supports robust digital learning today, and is ready for tomorrow’s demands.”
All too often, schools come to us after being let down by previous providers. A lack of true understanding and inadequate support has, in some cases, left school administrators attempting to install routers or troubleshoot network outages themselves. Poor technical support and slow response times can be highly disruptive to schools that rely heavily on technology to deliver the curriculum and essential educational services. That’s why this partnership prioritises local support, with dedicated technical teams and installation engineers who understand the pressures schools face. Our goal is simple: let teachers and school staff focus on education—not IT problems.
Each partner brings complementary strengths to the table:
Schools operate in a uniquely complex environment, where the right technology solutions must balance performance, safety, and value. That’s why it’s essential to choose IT providers who are not only technically capable but also deeply rooted in the education sector. Vendors with a long-standing focus on schools and Trusts bring valuable insight into the evolving demands of teaching and learning, from the early days of classroom computers to today’s fully connected campuses. They understand the realities of tight budgets, the critical importance of safeguarding and data protection, and the growing threats posed by cyber attacks. Together, the three providers offer one point of accountability, with end-to-end project delivery and a shared commitment to service excellence. Schools and Trusts can expect high service levels, responsive support, and clear, expert advice—backed by a team that truly understands the education sector and works in harmony with the regulatory, operational, and learning environments of schools.
This collaboration marks a step change in how IT services are delivered in education—offering real value, simplicity, and confidence in an increasingly complex digital environment.
