Final savings depend on tariffs, contracts, site usage and supplier confirmation.
Indicative estimate only. Based on available public data, benchmark assumptions and information provided by the school. Final savings depend on current contracts, service requirements and supplier confirmation.
Phone systems have moved from traditional on-premise hardware to cloud-based VoIP, and pricing models vary widely. Some schools may still be on older contracts that no longer reflect current market rates. Our indicative tool applies an evidence-led 17% efficiency assumption to help you gauge where your spending might sit, relative to cautious sector benchmarks.
You can enter your current annual telecoms spend into the calculator. The system applies a cautious 17% saving assumption – a figure derived from approved Edunet benchmarks and public sector procurement patterns. The result is a potential opportunity figure, shown only as an estimate. No supplier pricing or individual school benchmarking data is used at this stage, so the output is purely indicative.
After using the calculator, you will have an initial sense of whether a deeper review could be useful. The Edunet Portal can help connect you with supplier-backed comparisons, but any final savings depend on your current contracts, service mix, and your chosen supplier’s confirmation. We recommend using this tool as a first step, then contacting us for a no-obligation discussion tailored to your school.

None. The tool is provided as an indicative aid for school business managers and finance leads. You can choose to contact Edunet for further guidance, but there is no cost or commitment required.

This page is written for schools across Bradford and West Yorkshire. The postcode step keeps the review tied to the selected school before any benchmark-led result is shown.
