AN expanding IT firm is going back to school by launching a website for the education sector.

Clayton-le-Moors-based Cleverboxes has designed its online portal edu.cleverboxes.com to offer ‘unbeatable value on all the latest content and products’.

It allows schools to buy online and also offers finance.

Rick Ingham, marketing manager at the Petre Road, firm said: “Purchasing for education is a niche market and this is a groundbreaking move for us. It could have significant benefits for all those involved in education.”

Cleverboxes was launched just five years ago but is on track for £11million turnover this year.

It also recently celebrated its first £1million sales month.
