JANET Roaming Service, eduroam
The School is participating in the eduroam project run by JANET to provide network access for staff and students visiting other organisations.
Using their own username and password credential provided by their home organisation, visitors can gain guest network access at a Visited organisation.
'JANET's eduroam infrastructure enables participating organisations to offer secure JANET-connected guest network services over Wi-Fi, to students, staff and research users, at minimal cost.' For more information please see the Janet Roaming Policy.
