Discover how Alta-1 College — a care and curriculum re-engagement school with 23 campuses across Western Australia and nearly 1,000 students — made the switch to Microsoft Surface. As their technology partner, we worked alongside Alta-1 to design a carefully managed rollout that supported staff and students through change. Together, we introduced over 800 Surface devices across the college, integrating seamlessly with Microsoft 365 to enable collaboration, individualised learning, and greater flexibility for staff who travel between campuses.
Inspired by Alta-1’s story? Let’s explore how Surface could transform learning at your school.
