READING, England, August 4 /PRNewswire/ --     Driving timely communications via the internet, Elstree School is staying
connected in the school and extended community. Elstree, a leading boy's
preparatory school founded in 1848, is not new to evolution and has been
online for the past 10 years. To continue its evolution and drive their
online presence forward, Elstree (http://www.elstreeschool.org.uk) has turned
to DediPower, a leading UK provider of managed hosting and data centre
solutions, to underpin the site and provide the school with managed hosting
solutions.

The internet is increasingly being used to eliminate barriers for Elstree
School and is more than a communication tool. It has enabled the school to
more fully involve parents, providing them with access to an extensive photo
gallery of school events and emergency SMS messaging facilities. The site
also allows Elstree to promote the school not only nationally but globally to
attract both prospective staff and students.

"At Elstree our online presence has become a vital element in the way we
engage with both current and prospective parents. We needed to be confident
that our website is available to the community at all times. Having worked
with DediPower previously, we were impressed with their quality of service.
Their managed hosting solution allows us to leverage our website design work,
whilst at the same time benefiting from the backup of DediPower's extensive
technical knowledge and support," said Tom Ward, Head of Science and Chair of
the IT Committee, Elstree School.

solutions delivering custom built high-specification dedicated servers. This
