Microsoft announced that a major agreement with the British
Educational Communications & Technology Agency (BECTA) that
will enable UK schools to acquire and use the most up-to-date
Microsoft software at reduced rate.
How the Agreement works:
Currently schools purchase software individually or in groups.
By aggregating demand across the entire UK schools sector, BECTA
has been able to achieve volume discounts for every school.
If you intend to purchase or renew Microsoft volume licenses for
a school under Select or School Agreement, you can expect to pay
less from 1 January 2004. This saving should be passed on to you as
a direct price reduction from your supplier.
Agreement Details:
- It covers England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
- The discounts are applicable to Academic Select and Academic
Schools agreement but not Academic Open.
- These discounts are available to all schools including
Independent schools.
- The deal is NOT applicable to Higher or Further education, LEA
internal use, charities and other government funded
organisations.
