SDS Group

Founded by former members of the original Microsoft School Data Sync team, the consultancy draws on combined experience across multiple technology platforms and solutions used in education. Services are delivered through online appointments and consultation sessions, allowing schools, colleges and trusts to discuss specific requirements relating to Microsoft School Data Sync deployments, Microsoft Teams for Education configurations and related Microsoft 365 education tooling.

Typical engagements cover the planning, configuration and troubleshooting of School Data Sync, which synchronises rostering data from a school's management information system into Microsoft 365 to provision users, classes and teams. The consultancy supports institutions through implementation, data mapping and integration with existing identity and student record systems, as well as ongoing operational support for Microsoft Teams environments used in teaching and learning.
