Reliable, LEA approved, School Internet Solutions

Exa and its staff have been working directly in provisioning services to the education sector since the foundation of the countries first National Grid For Learning in the late 90's.

Exa now look after over 5% of schools in the UK providing services from connectivity to email through to complete packages.

Take a look at what schools are saying about Exa by viewing our Video Testimonials or our written testimonials.

As a pioneer in the field of internet connectivity and content filtering to schools; Exa has grown to become one of the largest independent providers to educational organisations in the UK.

Written Testimonials

It is always nice when people say good things about you. So we thought why not share some of those with our other or potential customers too.

Video Testimonials

Reading a testimonial is always nice; although there is always a niggling doubt, are they actually real?
We can assure you, all of Exa's written testimonials are completely truthful and written by the person/school listed. However it's always seems more "real" if you can see the person giving their testimonials, hence why we now have our video testimonials page. No customers were given anything, other than a thank you, for giving their time and energy in making their testimonials.
