Email Services
Schools ICT helps to deliver and support the use of Microsoft’s Office 365 e-mail solution, Outlook, to schools in North Yorkshire. As part of Office 365, schools get a highly reliable and fully featured e-mail and calendaring system. Schools can either use Outlook on the web, by logging into Office 365 with their web browser, or they can use the desktop Outlook e-mail client, or the Outlook mobile app, available as part of the Microsoft Office suite of products.
By using Outlook as part of Office 365 with Schools ICT, schools get:
- Anytime, anywhere access to e-mail.
- E-mail addresses for all members of staff and all pupils, if so desired.
- Personal and shared calendars
- Secure e-mail (requires additional setup by Schools ICT)
- Unlimited e-mail archiving (requires additional setup by Schools ICT)
- Office 365's built in protection from spam and malicious software
- Telephone and Remote support
Schools ICT has been supporting Office 365 since it was first released by Microsoft. We have years of experience helping schools of all shapes and sizes to make the most of Office 365.

Microsoft Product Life Cycles
Last updated: 04-04-2018
Schools ICT recommends that schools use Microsoft Operating systems and Microsoft Applications that are supported by Microsoft. This will reduce the likelyhood of computers getting infected by malware or viruses, if you have any questions or concerns please contact the Schools ICT helpdesk on 01609 536086.
Microsoft provides technical and security updates on their products but as per all things this is not forever. It is strongly recommended that all schools upgrade or replace computers that fall outside the Microsoft Extended Support End Date.
For the very latest information please check out the Microsoft Support Lifecycle search page . This is maintained by Microsoft and so contains all the latest information
Important: if you use Microsoft Office to edit documents held in Office 365 OneDrive or Office 365 SharePoint, Microsoft only support the latest two versions.
