An ex-pupil at The Portsmouth Grammar School has returned to his roots to help out with classroom and back-office tech.

Rob Hepworth of local IT reseller Tektraders is supplying the school’s full portfolio of computers, interactive screens, printers, consumables and networking equipment.

Rob said he was looking forward to working with the school to improve and expand its range of equipment.

“I’ll always remember my time at The Portsmouth Grammar School.

“I was very fortunate to be awarded a bursary, so I’m passionate about sharing my skills and assisting the school by whatever means I can – it’s my way of saying ‘thank you’!

“This is a very exciting new partnership for us at Tektraders.

“We’ve already got to know the school’s IT team well, and I can’t wait to deliver IT equipment that I know will make an impact on lessons and their day-to-day running of the school.”

Bursar John Read added: “I’m delighted to be working with Rob to enhance the school’s technology.

“Every classroom up and down the country is now fitted with IT equipment.

“It’s an integral part of learning and preparing pupils for the world beyond school, and it’s got to be to a high standard.

“I’m confident Rob will assist our team to find the equipment that streamlines lessons and gives pupils access to the very best education through being able to use the right technology and at a competitive price.”
