Challenges & Objectives
Given the austerity measures imposed on the academic sector since 2010, and further impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19 in the early part of 2020, Boxgrove have found themselves in a financial situation similar to many, if not all, academic establishments across the UK in the reduction of their budgets. Boxgrove decided they would be creative with the way they spend and fund raise to keep their most important goal of providing an excellent teaching standard to the children who pass through their care, and have looked to monetise their facilities outside of school hours and help reduce the impact.
CARBON IT SERVICES were engaged to advise on, procure and realise solutions for the following business critical goals:
-
- Transform the smaller Lunch Hall area from it’s currently singular purpose to a new Event space that can be hired for use by 3rd parties, by providing a presentation style space suitable for training courses, and visually-led seminars or classes.
- Augment the larger Assembly Hall area to accommodate more professional or AV-intensive events more suited to audio presentations, larger gatherings and artistic/musical performances
