Information Management Services

The Information Management Services (IMS) department is the behind-the-scenes partner at Surrey Schools. We manage the district's information and communication technology needs, from computers in classrooms to business, student, and library application systems. We work with schools and district sites to ensure they have the information, technology, and related services they need to achieve their goals.

Our Mission

Develop, execute, and maintain outstanding services and service levels, which reflect the combined resources and requirements of information technology at the school and district levels.

Our Vision

We maintain a high level of professionalism in all of our interactions, including following through with actions that support our words.

Two separate but aligned visions have been developed for educators and administrators. They are equally important audiences working towards a common goal - delivering learning opportunities for the students.

Education Vision
Partners in improving students' learning through the synergy of reliable technology and innovative access to the very best learning opportunities.

Administration Vision
Demonstrate leadership and support for collaborative, cost-effective and easy-to-use administrative technology to assist SD36 staff in supporting student learning.
