Microsoft Teams Room Case Study: St John's Anglican College

August 11, 2026

St John's Anglican College needed a Microsoft Teams Room that staff could walk into, press Join, and use without calling IT. That was the brief behind this project at the College's Forest Lake campus.

The Big Picture Group delivered a room built around a 105" ultrawide ViewSonic display and Shure IntelliMix Room Kit 70, designed for simple meetings, clear full-room audio, and reliable day-to-day use within a Microsoft environment.

Reliable, not just impressive.

For school IT teams, the real test of a room like this is not the spec sheet. It is whether the space works first go, is easy for staff to use, and does not create another stream of avoidable support tickets.

That was the focus here. The room needed to feel simple from the user side while still giving the IT team clean deployment, remote visibility, and a setup they could support without unnecessary friction.

Delivered as a full Microsoft Teams Room.

Room Specification 6 Components
01
105" ultrawide ViewSonic display
02
Shure IntelliMix Room Kit 70
03
Dual Shure MXA902 ceiling array microphone and loudspeaker units
04
Huddly L1 camera
05
Windows-based MTR compute
06
In-table touch control

The technology stack was selected to give the room strong audio coverage, a straightforward Teams experience, and a cleaner support path over time.

Designed around practical day-to-day use.

Staff can walk in, press Join, and get on with the meeting. Remote management is available through Teams Admin Centre and Teams Rooms Pro. Dual ceiling arrays provide even audio pickup across the room.

Press Join and Go
No walkthrough needed. Staff use the room the same way every time.
Remote Management
Teams Admin Centre and Teams Rooms Pro give IT full visibility without being on site.
Even Audio Coverage
Dual ceiling arrays pick up voices clearly across the whole room, not just near the table.
Ready From Day One
Installed, commissioned, and handed over ready for real use — not a soft launch.

Just as importantly, the room was installed, commissioned, and handed over ready for real use.

A room that fits, and gets out of the way.

The result is a Microsoft Teams Room that fits neatly into the school's Microsoft environment, feels polished in use, and reduces support friction for the IT team.

The Big Picture Group View

That is the standard we care about. Technology should support the room, not get in the way of it.
