What is Cloud Design Box?
Cloud Design Box is the Microsoft SharePoint and Teams platform built specifically for schools and Multi-Academy Trusts.
We help education organisations turn Microsoft 365 into a structured, easy to use digital environment for staff, students and leaders. Rather than introducing another separate platform, Cloud Design Box builds on the Microsoft technology schools already have.
Our solution combines a modern SharePoint intranet with automated Microsoft Teams and workspace provisioning, MIS integration, teaching and learning tools, communication features and Microsoft 365 governance.
Schools can provide staff and students with one central place to access news, policies, teaching resources, applications, classes and important information. Behind the scenes, Cloud Design Box automates many of the repetitive tasks normally managed by IT teams, including creating Class Teams, department Teams, subject areas, student folders and maintaining memberships as MIS data changes.
For Multi-Academy Trusts, Cloud Design Box provides consistency across multiple schools while still allowing individual academies to retain their own identity.
Cloud Design Box also includes tools designed around real school workflows, including class dashboards, assignment visibility and analytics, self service site creation, parent and guardian integrations and custom SharePoint web parts.
More than 800 schools, colleges and trusts use Cloud Design Box to make Microsoft 365 easier to manage, easier for staff to use and more valuable to their organisation.
Who is it for?
Cloud Design Box is designed for schools, academies, Multi Academy Trusts, colleges, independent schools and international schools using Microsoft 365.
It is particularly suited to organisations that want to improve the structure and adoption of Microsoft Teams and SharePoint, replace legacy intranets or VLEs, reduce manual Microsoft 365 administration, or create a consistent digital environment across multiple schools.

Educational Impact
