Our Story

Technology Built for Education

The Vision

Staffs Tech was founded in 2015 with a simple mission: to provide schools with the honest, expert, and reliable technical support they deserve.

Our founder, Yacoub Yunus, did not just start a business; he built a company based on a decade of hands-on experience within the Staffordshire education system. Having worked across the county's schools since 2004, starting with Staffordshire County Council's ICT division (then known as EJITU), Yacoub witnessed first-hand the evolving needs of the classroom.

The Turning Point

Following the council's joint venture with Entrust, Yacoub recognized a gap in the market for a more personal, agile, and dedicated IT partner for schools. In 2015, he took the leap to establish Staffs Tech.

The journey began with a single partner: Anglesey Primary Academy in Burton. By proving that a dedicated, school-focused approach worked, word quickly spread. That one school became the foundation for what would become one of the region's fastest-growing education technology providers.

Evolution & Expansion

What started as basic onsite technical support rapidly evolved. We listened to the challenges facing Headteachers and Business Managers, and we adapted. We transformed from a support desk into a full turnkey solution provider.

Today, our expertise spans the entire digital landscape of a school, including full managed services, infrastructure and connectivity, MIS support, cyber security, and digital strategy.

Our Impact Today

From a team of one, Staffs Tech has grown into a powerhouse of over 30 dedicated professionals. We are proud to support over 100 schools across Staffordshire and beyond.

Our growth has not just been about numbers; it has been about people. We are committed to the local economy, providing career-starting opportunities to apprentices and partnering with local contractors to keep our community thriving.

Why Staffs Tech?

We are not just another IT company; we are education specialists. We understand the bell times, budget constraints, and the vital importance of technology in a child's learning journey.

We've been in your classrooms since 2004, and we are here to stay.
