Do you support education clients?
Yes — education IT support is our speciality. We’ve supported primary schools, MATs, and colleges for over 20 years. We understand the challenges: safeguarding, filtering, compliance, and budgets. That’s why schools trust PT Cyber as their IT partner.

Can you supply hardware and software?
Yes — we provide devices, licences, and software at competitive rates, alongside setup and ongoing support. One partner for everything IT.
Where do you provide IT support?
We provide remote IT support across the UK and on-site services across North Wales, Cheshire and the North West.
How does investing in IT support save us money?
By preventing problems, extending the life of devices, and keeping staff productive. Without IT support, you’ll face more downtime, costly emergencies, and early device replacements. Our services often pay for themselves through reduced risk and improved efficiency.
Can’t we just fix IT problems when they happen instead of paying monthly?
Reactive “break/fix” IT might sound cheaper, but emergency callouts and downtime quickly add up. PT Cyber’s proactive IT support model means we monitor, patch, and secure your systems every day, reducing downtime and giving you predictable monthly costs — instead of nasty surprises.
Why should I care about cybersecurity? I don’t think it will affect me.
This is the biggest myth we hear. In reality, SMEs and schools are prime targets for cybercrime because attackers know they’re less protected. A phishing attack or ransomware infection can cost thousands and damage your reputation. That’s why we include cybersecurity by default in every package — enterprise-grade protection without enterprise pricing.

Why managed IT support matters
Poorly managed IT leads to:
Increased cyber security risk
Lost teaching or working time
Failed inspections, audits, or accreditations
Unclear responsibility during incidents
Reactive firefighting instead of planned improvement
Managed IT support shifts your organisation from reactive fixes to controlled, proactive management.
