Bromcom School MIS launches partnership with Scomis

Acer Trust to move more schools to Scomis on the back of successful support project

 

On May 22nd 2023, Bromcom announced a wide-ranging partnership with Scomis to support trusts and schools across the nation. 

This commenced with a detailed collaboration between Acer Trust, Scomis, and Bromcom to test, learn, and create a partnership of excellence. We are delighted to announce that the project has been hugely successful, and we are now ready to extend this service to schools and MATs seeking greater choice.  

Acer Trust is a MAT from Oxfordshire who moved three of their schools that use Bromcom over to Scomis’ support network. The schools have benefited from the change and as a result, Acer Trust is now planning to move six more of its primary schools over to Scomis to receive the same services.

Michael Heard, Education Business Partner at Scomis, commented: “We are delighted to develop our partnership with Bromcom. Following a successful pilot project with Acer Trust, we are looking forward to providing additional support and MIS choice for schools, as well as developing our working relationship with Bromcom.”

Jamie Wade, Chief Commercial Officer at Acer, said: “We are very happy working with Scomis and have greatly valued their support over the past year; we look forward to moving our other six schools over to receive Scomis support too. Bromcom has made a big difference to how we can use and access data, and with the ongoing support from Scomis, we know we are in good hands.”

Chris Kirk, Chief Commercial Officer at Bromcom, also reflected on the benefits of the partnership, saying: “It is clear that Bromcom and Scomis have been great partners in supporting Acer Trust.  I am delighted that, through Scomis, we will be offering our MIS and Finance to schools across the region, and look forward to upcoming Discovery Days when schools will be able to learn more about moving to Bromcom.”
