Reaching out to students in isolated communities

Local authorities have an obligation to provide a high level of educational services in remote areas, even where it is not possible to access high-speed broadband using standard technologies.

With the Internet playing such a large part in our lives these days, it’s important that all schoolchildren have the opportunity to benefit from this valuable means of interactive learning.

When those children happen to live in remote locations, then an alternative means of providing broadband connection must be found. And that’s where Excelerate excels with its affordable broadband satellite solutions.

Excelerate communications technology can also be used to educate people about the work of government organisations and spread the message about the role of charities.

Whether these organisations operate dedicated vehicles or portable exhibition equipment, Excelerate can tailor technological solutions that allow instant Internet access wherever they need to be located.

For example, for Powys CC, Excelerate provided a Transportable Broadband Satellite solution for its mobile, vehicle-based Youth Information Service, which delivers invaluable outreach youth education and advisory services across the county.

This broadband satellite system enables advisers to access the Internet wherever the vehicle are located to obtain additional, up to the minute information to ensure the delivery of the highest level of service.
