Eastbourne College Music Department began using Maestro in January 2018 after identifying a serious need to improve our old timetabling system.

"It has proved to be an excellent investment, allowing an efficient and effective timetabling of all music lessons and ensembles. Pupils, parents and staff all have access and that visibility has meant that communication channels have improved significantly. Pupil feedback is very positive and they enjoy the facility of checking online when their next lesson is, whilst also receiving an e-mail alert. Technical support is always available and the Furlong team have been excellent in helping us iron out any problems. I can thoroughly recommend it."
DK Jordan Director of Music, Eastbourne College

Maestro is an intuitive and easy to use timetabling system with brilliant communication tools - which ensure that our students are up to date with their musical activities.

" We received fantastic support and training from the Furlong team. We liked that the software can be moulded to our own personal preferences. Overall, a great piece of software that will helps us to run our instrumental lessons/ensembles much more effectively, ensuring that the students are benefitting from all of their opportunities."
Jon Boyle - Head of Vocal & Instrumental School

Using Maestro has been a game-changer for us.

"Especially with the new GDPR rules, the ability to send individualised timetables to parents has saved us from a lot of tedious leg-work. The interface is intuitive, and on the odd occasion we haven’t been able to figure something out, there’s always a friendly voice on the other end of the phone to help us quickly."
Mark Penrose - Bilton Grange Prep School
