INNOVATIVE EDUCATION LEASING SOLUTIONS

Give your school more room to do what matters.

For Schools

Finance the technology and infrastructure your students need, without putting all the pressure on today’s budget.

Schools are asked to do more with limited capital. Keeping devices current, improving learning spaces and funding essential infrastructure can mean difficult trade-offs and delayed projects.

Quadrent helps schools make important investments happen sooner. We finance short-life technology and long-life infrastructure through structures that reflect how each asset is used, while helping you manage refresh, end of term and budget certainty.

Two funding paths for school assets

Lease to return

For technology and equipment that is regularly updated, including ICT, AV, CCTV and print. Spread the cost across the useful life of the asset, plan a regular refresh and return eligible equipment at end of term for secure data erasure and responsible reuse or recycling.

Lease to own

For longer-life assets your school is likely to keep, including solar, LED lighting, shade canopies, playgrounds, artificial turf, furniture, temporary classrooms, mowers, vehicles and laboratory equipment. Use funding alongside school capital, grants and fundraising to help a project happen now.

More value from every device

Quadrent is more than a funder. We connect funding, lifecycle management, reporting and impact so schools can make better asset decisions from day one through to end of term.

Our digital inclusion work reflects the same purpose. Suitable returned technology from customer fleets can be refurbished and directed to students who do not have access to the devices they need for learning.

Frequently asked questions

How can leasing help schools manage tight, fixed budgets?

Leasing converts large capital spikes into smooth, predictable payments aligned to budget cycles. This means schools can access current technology and equipment without depleting annual budgets in a single procurement event.

What can schools finance?

Schools can finance ICT, AV, CCTV, print, lab equipment and longer-life assets such as solar, LED lighting, playgrounds, artificial turf, shade canopies, furniture, temporary classrooms, mowers and vehicles.

Can funding sit alongside grants and fundraising?

Yes. Lease-to-own funding can help fill a funding gap alongside school capital, community grants and fundraising, subject to the structure and asset.

What happens to devices at end of term, and is there a sustainability benefit?

Returned devices go through responsible reuse and refurbishment rather than disposal. This keeps devices out of storage rooms or landfill and, where eligible, supports digital inclusion initiatives through device donation programmes that directly impact the communities in which we live and work.

How do we choose between lease to return and lease to own? Lease to return suits assets with a short useful life, especially technology. Lease to own suits longer-life assets where ownership at the end of the term is important.
