The phone problem in schools.
Front office overloaded
Reception juggles parents, visitors and deliveries while the phone keeps ringing.
Multiple sites
Academy trusts need sites to connect and route as one system.
Reliability & safeguarding
Calls must always work and route appropriately, with records where needed.
Term-time peaks
Absence lines and admissions create predictable call surges.
How Telexico helps schools.
We give schools reliable cloud telephony with department and absence-line routing, voicemail-to-email, and multi-site connectivity so an academy trust runs as one system. Optional failover keeps lines up, and an AI receptionist can handle absence reporting and routine enquiries.
Because we also do broadband, leased lines and WiFi, a school can get connectivity and phones from one provider on one bill, supported locally.
