Back to School communications spotlight

Schools are all about communicating with pupils but what about communication with each other.

Radio communication is a highly effective tool within schools, but just as each child is different so are the communication needs of each school. Zycomm Electronics who specialise in walkie talkies highlight 5 different scenarios and cherry pick some of the most suitable radios from the renowned Hytera range.

Hiring radios for events
Welcome or back to school events can be a great way to jumpstart the new term and especially to make new additions to reception, Year 7 and Sixth Form feel at home. The Hytera PD705LT is rugged and robust and most importantly easy to use. It’s emergency features help keep staff and pupils alike safe and is dust and waterproof in the event of an unexpected downpour. Zycomm pricing for hire starts from very low rates and offers additional ear pieces to act as a noise cancellation device.

Trips out and smaller school
Hytera recently launched the new radio BD305LF which is a fantastic solution, both for small schools and school trips. This licence-free digital option that can easily be bought be purchased without costly licencing offering an ideal slim, lightweight option which can be easily carried.

Duke of Edinburgh Safety
For school expeditions such as the popular Duke of Edinburgh Awards the GPS trackable PD705G comes in handy. If different groups become separated on a trip they can locate each other again quickly. The radios are encrypted adding an extra level of data protection and safeguarding ensuring no one else can listen in on confidential staff or pupil conversations and the vital emergency features allow groups to call for back up if there is an injury or other problem.

Large school communication solutions
The Hytera PD705 is ideal for wider area cover offering lone worker pre-alarms and other emergency radio functionality to get time critical messages across quickly. These radios help with risk assessment and school shutdown plans with an all call feature to alert every radio user in the event of a serious incident.
