Choose what your school needs
Five specialist routes. One place to start.
This page is the education hub. Each service below links to a dedicated page with the detail, technical information and enquiry route for that particular requirement.
School safety
Clear alerts. Better visibility. Practical safeguards.
Safety technology works best when it supports the school's actual procedures, buildings and safeguarding requirements rather than being treated as a stand-alone gadget.
Critical alerting
School Lockdown Alarm Systems
Camelott designs and installs wireless lockdown alert systems for education sites. A surveyed system can combine fixed call points, authorised portable triggers, sounders, flashing beacons, voice annunciation and optional digital monitoring.
- Survey-led coverage: classrooms, offices, halls, detached buildings and suitable external areas can be assessed.
- Distinct emergency alert: configured separately from the normal fire-alarm response.
- Fast wireless installation: designed to minimise disruption and unnecessary cabling.
- Handover and training: nominated staff can be shown activation, reset and test procedures.
Safeguarding blind spots
Vape Detection for Schools
Vape detection helps schools monitor privacy-sensitive areas such as toilets and changing rooms where conventional CCTV is not appropriate. Camelott's dedicated system is designed to provide discreet staff alerts without cameras or microphones.
- Privacy-first: suitable for areas where cameras and microphones are inappropriate.
- Staff alerts: PC notifications with optional SMS escalation.
- Local network model: designed around the school's own network rather than mandatory third-party cloud storage.
- Anti-tamper monitoring: helps identify interference with installed units.
Managed print & photocopiers
A school print setup designed around actual use
The dedicated education print page remains the main destination for school photocopiers and managed print. This hub introduces the service without duplicating that page's search intent.
Camelott can review existing printers, photocopiers, print volumes, scanning requirements, software and contract costs before recommending the most appropriate equipment and workflow.
- Print audits: review the existing estate rather than replacing devices like-for-like.
- Photocopier leasing and purchase: choose equipment around school workload and budget.
- Managed print: control usage, costs and support across staff and departments.
- Software integration: options for print management, document security and existing IT workflows.
- Lower-energy options: Epson business inkjet can be considered where energy and waste reduction are priorities.
Classroom & device technology
Technology that supports teaching and school policy
Camelott also provides specialist classroom display technology and practical device-storage options for schools.
Classroom screens
Screens for Schools
Interactive displays can bring lesson content, annotation, quizzes, multimedia and classroom collaboration onto one large teaching surface. Camelott's dedicated touchscreen page covers the available classroom features in detail.
- Interactive lesson delivery: write, annotate and present from the display.
- Teaching tools: supported software can help teachers present, annotate and adapt lesson content.
- Multimedia: combine presentations, video, interactive content and teaching resources.
- Classroom-focused installation: discuss display size, position and teaching requirements before supply.
Phone-free school policy
Mobile Phone Lockers
Secure phone storage can give schools a practical way to support consistent mobile-phone policies without relying solely on repeated confiscation or classroom-by-classroom enforcement.
- Secure storage: provide a defined place for pupils' devices during the school day.
- Policy support: help schools implement a consistent approach to phone access.
- Reduced distraction: remove phones from day-to-day teaching environments where required.
- Scalable: discuss storage requirements by year group, department or whole-school policy.
How we approach a school project
Start with the requirement, not the product
Different school projects need different levels of assessment. A lockdown installation needs coverage planning; managed print needs usage and cost analysis; classroom technology needs the teaching environment understood.
- Tell us what you are trying to improve Safety, printing, safeguarding, classroom technology or device management.
- Review the existing setup Where relevant, we look at current equipment, contracts, buildings, network requirements or operating procedures.
- Assess the real requirement A site survey, print audit or technical discussion identifies what is actually needed.
- Provide a clear proposal Equipment, installation and ongoing requirements can be set out before the school commits.
- Install and hand over Systems are configured for the site and nominated staff are shown the relevant controls and operation.
- Support after installation Camelott continues to provide technical and service support for the solutions it supplies.
Why Camelott
One supplier across several school priorities
Schools do not have to buy every service from Camelott. The benefit of the wider education offering is that the same supplier can understand several parts of the school's operational environment where that is useful.
- Education experience: Camelott works with schools, colleges and academy environments across print and safety projects.
- Technical rather than catalogue-led: projects can be assessed around the site and requirement before equipment is selected.
- Telford service centre: Camelott operates from Stafford Park in Telford while supporting customers across the UK.
- Established since 2017: support covers both new projects and ongoing service requirements.
- Multiple technologies: school safety, managed print and classroom technology can be discussed through one supplier where appropriate.
