The Girls’ Grammar School, Bradford

Bradford Girls’ Grammar School has a wide range of print requirements from producing colour booklets, school magazine and brochures to copying large volumes of black and white documents such as curriculum work, exam papers and course notes.

Arena analysed the school’s needs and recommended different machines to ensure maximum efficiency and cost savings.

"Before, we outsourced our colour printing including the production of our in-house school magazine, the Bradford Independent. This was costly and time consuming," said Julie Newman, the school Head’s secretary.

"The science department run an annual science week. Now we scan in photos to the machine, within minutes the photos can be placed into the Bradford Independent and distributed. It really is wonderful and the quality is very good."

Students won a Wharfedale Festival of Music and Drama award for posters, tickets and programmes produced for Calamity Jane and Daisy Pulls it Off, using their new machine.

"We produce a monthly report which tracks the printing and copying by department. I can stop costs escalating and have much more control over them," said Michelle Taylor, Estates Purchasing Manager.

"The service and support from Arena is second to none – they are friendly and helpful and will always go the extra mile."
