Schools & universities
A campus is a lot of screens and a lot of buildings
Notices, timetables and events across faculties, and a lockdown channel that reaches all of them.
A campus does not have a signage problem, it has an ownership problem. The screen in the science block belongs to the science block, the one in the library belongs to the library, and nobody has a list of all of them — so when something has to reach the whole site, it goes out as an email and a hope.
The budget works the same way. Per-screen subscriptions are the reason most institutions have four screens doing something useful and thirty doing nothing: every new screen is a new line on a renewal, so the sensible thing is not to add one.
Signvero prices by band rather than by screen, which turns "should we put one in the sports hall" into a question about the sports hall rather than about the budget. Departments keep their own screens and their own content; the institution gets one list of everything and one button that reaches all of it.
What usually goes wrong
The starting point
- Screens are owned by departments and nobody has an overall view
- Emergency messaging has to be instant and unmissable
- Budgets do not stretch to a per-screen subscription
Roles per department
Content managers publish to their own screens; administrators see everything, with an audit trail behind it.
Lockdown in seconds
One emergency alert, every screen on campus, full-screen and unmissable.
No per-screen fees
One price for the band your campus is in, on hardware you already own. The next screen inside it is free.
In practice
What goes on the screens
Six things this trade puts up, rather than six things a signage brochure says you could.
Today’s timetable changes
Room moves and cover arrangements on the screen outside the block, instead of a note on a door.
Exam information
Hall, seat ranges and start times, scheduled to appear the week they matter and disappear afterwards.
Event and society boards
Run by the students who organise them, published only to the screens they are allowed.
Achievement and results walls
The thing parents photograph on open day.
Canteen menus and bus times
The two questions asked most often, answered on a loop.
Lockdown and evacuation
One button, every building, full-screen, and it holds until an administrator clears it.
On the wall
What this looks like in a school
Two of the boards this trade runs. Both are built from a template in the panel, so the third one looks like the first and a price changed in one place is changed everywhere.
Placement
Where the screens go
The question every first conversation reaches within ten minutes. In the order most places buy them — and the first one is usually enough to start.
- 01The main entrance, for visitors and today’s changes
- 02Outside each department or block
- 03The canteen, for menus and bus times
- 04The sports hall, for exams and results
The moment that matters
One alert, every screen, in seconds
Everything else on this page is the ordinary day. This is the reason people actually buy it.

Before you ask
Questions from this trade
- Can each department manage its own screens?
- Yes. Screens are grouped and roles are per group, so a department publishes to its own and sees nothing else, while a central administrator sees the whole estate.
- How fast does a lockdown message reach the screens?
- Seconds. It is full-screen, it covers whatever was playing, and it holds until somebody with permission clears it.
- Do we pay more as we add screens around the campus?
- Not inside your band — a band covers its screens for one price, and the step up to the next one buys far more screens than it costs. That is deliberate: per-screen pricing is the reason most campuses stop at four screens.
- Can students run their own boards safely?
- Yes, within a group you control, with every change recorded against a name. An administrator can take anything down from the same panel.
