Live@edu is a platform introduced by Microsoft for the education community to bring teachers, students and parents a flexible environment of communications via wide variety of online tools such as emails, blogs and live workspaces. Microsoft Live@edu is a single resource with multiple tools that students can access with one e-mail account for a consistent user experience. It is a free offering for schools based on e-mail through Microsoft Outlook Live, with access to other services such as Windows Live SkyDrive. This service gives students, staff, and faculty the power to choose how they communicate and collaborate with the people and communities around them. Also, because schools customize Live@edu e-mail with their branding, students feel connected with their academic community.

Windows Live email accounts have been created for all students, teachers and parents under the Live@edu program and Tech One Global was honoured with the task of educating all the students from grade six upwards and all the teachers.
