Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Academies and multi-academy trusts (MATs) in the UK can lease IT equipment through an operating lease.

Freedom Tech, the UK education IT leasing specialist within CSI Leasing, structures its school leases to fit the rules. That way multi-academy trusts can spread the cost of devices across budget years without taking on borrowing.

A school can run a 1:1 device programme at no cost to its budget when the devices are funded through optional parental contributions, and Freedom Tech manages the whole scheme on the school’s behalf.

Freedom Tech is a UK provider of 1:1 device programmes for schools and part of CSI Leasing. Also, the optional repair service provides complete peace of mind for schools, staff, students, and parents. This service provides a free of charge repair for any faulty or damaged device. All repair tickets are logged through a transparent repairs portal with live up to date tracking for both the school and parents.

Freedom Tech collects the devices and securely erases all student and staff data through its IT asset disposition (ITAD) process before reusing any device.

This erasure process complies with regulations, and the school receives an erasure certificate for each device serial number. This helps the school to meet its UK GDPR obligations.

Schools and academies can lease Chromebooks, Windows laptops, iPads and other classroom technology through Freedom Tech.

As a UK education IT leasing provider, Freedom Tech is not tied to any single manufacturer. Each school can choose the platform that suits its teaching, its age groups and its IT strategy, and change it at refresh. Tell us your current set-up and we will suggest suitable options.

Leasing school IT can be more environmentally friendly than buying it, because devices go back to the provider at the end of the term to be refurbished and reused, not stored or thrown away. Freedom Tech, a UK education leasing business, gives returned devices a second life through EPC Global Solutions refurbishment centres, and can provide certificates for a school’s environmental reporting and its climate action plan.
