What could you free up in your MAT budget?
Every school estate is different. Use the calculator below to see how much your trust could reinvest elsewhere by extending panels rather than replacing them.
Schools are facing a 'Post-Warranty Crisis'.
Classroom screens are now critical infrastructure, but as they reach the 5-7 year mark, they often fall into a high-risk support gap outside of warranty.
For leaders responsible for ICT budgets and classroom continuity, this creates a constant cycle of reactive decisions that threaten both financial sustainability and the quality of education.
- Surprise repair bills
- Classroom downtime
- No budget to plan
- No paper trail
- Unreliable support
- No visibility ahead
MEET PANELWISE
The simplest way to keep panels operational
All classroom panels come with a five-year warranty. After that, the cover ends, and schools face the same choice: Replace panels as they fail, or carry the risk and react when something goes wrong.
PanelWise offers a third option: Extend, before you replace.
Extend before you have to replace
Replace on your terms, not under pressure, so capital spend happens on your terms.
Plan budgets with confidence
Make clear, planned decisions for your estate, controlling risk and increasing predictability.
Keep classrooms operational
When a panel breaks down, you get a grade A replacement within 72 hours.
Fixed cost, agreed in advance
Bring post-warranty display costs into your budget, and reduce unexpected spend.
