TENET in schools

[AntiThesis]

I know there was someone I chatted to within the last three (?) years and there was some hint of this being a thing.

I know about the e-rate stuff and we'll have to add on a couple lines this year but I was wondering if anyone knew about the likelihood of a TENET-like thing in the near-to-middle timeframe.

I know FET colleges and such qualify for TENET. I'm surprised to hear you say schools aren't covered by TENET. I'd have thought they'd be prepared to supply schools as long as they can find a point to link up. Have you chatted to anyone at TENET itself?

Schools pretty much have to struggle on with what we can find. MWEB has a great e-rate system that works nicely (+- R200 p/m uncapped, unshaped) but everyone else more or less assumes you'll work just like a corporate and buy business grade solutions. Which is tough to justify in a school environment.

I must ask TENET directly actually - I just remember chatting to someone from here who had some interesting possibilities for the future.
