Case Study: Ibstock Place School achieves campus-wide high-performance connectivity with RUCKUS Networks

Ibstock Place School boosts campus connectivity by 10x with RUCKUS Networks

Ibstock Place School, an independent day school in London, faced a challenge as its aging wireless network struggled with the demands of modern digital learning tools and an expanding esports program. The network suffered from overload, inconsistent connectivity, and could not provide the necessary low-latency or reliable coverage across its eight-acre campus mixing historic and modern buildings. To address this, the school partnered with RUCKUS Networks.

The solution involved a future-ready network transformation using RUCKUS ICX switches and RUCKUS R650 Indoor APs, managed via the cloud-based RUCKUS One platform. This deployment provided seamless, high-density coverage across the entire campus. Results included a tenfold increase in backbone performance, a 25-50% reduction in average latency, and the elimination of dead zones, enabling reliable one-to-one device programs and a robust esports initiative.
