Fujitsu Scanning Solution

SUPPORTING ADMINISTRATION, ENABLING GDPR COMPLIANCE AND IMPROVING THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE

As schools, colleges and universities attempt the tricky balancing act of cutting costs while improving service levels, more and more are discovering the benefits of deploying Fujitsu scanners in classrooms and administrative offices

The introduction of scanning technology enables schools to experience enhanced collaboration and productivity, and more effectively address GDPR compliance concerns such as subject access requests.

Primary and secondary school teachers are working almost 60 hours a week, according to the DofE, and a lot of this time is spent carrying out bureaucratic tasks such as form filling and general paperwork.

By implementing digital working practices, including the scanning and digitisation of material, a school will very quickly see the benefits brought by enhanced collaboration between staff members, pupils and parents - as well as supporting SENCOs in the use of ICT, as laid out in their code of practice 2001.

The ability of Fujitsu scanners to aid learning is as important a benefit as improved administration

The speedier capture of correspondence such as permission slips, catering requests, HR material, bursaries and paperwork related to special needs - as well as the implementation of technology-driven teaching methods for a more enriched learning experience and marking - will additionally see time being freed up whether for teaching or personal recreation.

By the time children start school many are already familiar with technology, giving teachers a platform of knowledge on which to build. Infant and junior schools that have the technology to enhance learning are setting the benchmark, both in terms of actual achievement and parental and government recognition.

ENHANCED LEARNING

For many customers in the education sector the ability of Fujitsu scanners to aid learning is as important a benefit as improved administration; it is also a major priority for Fujitsu, who are working with a number of establishments to explore how scanners can be used to improve learning in the classroom.

CAPTURING EVIDENCE OF PROGRESS

An important aspect of this programme is to discover how technology can help early learners develop confidence in their abilities and also recognise the progress that they have made. Fujitsu scanners can help in this regard by capturing a pupil’s work throughout the term so that children, teachers and parents can see how their work has evolved and , as well as providing a discussion point in school. Providing digital files at the end of term instead, or as a supplement to, the actual artwork is also convenient for parents. Some schools are even charging for this service to recoup the cost of the scanner.
