Bodet Time’s news

It’s that time of year again; The nights are drawing in, the heating is coming on and the bi-annual clock change is nearly here!

The Bodet Group has been designing and manufacturing its products in Trémentines, France, since 1868. It has had a subsidiary in the UK since 1990, called Bodet Time. A lot has happened at Bodet Time since we celebrated our 30th anniversary during Covid. Let’s catch up.

Frodingham Infant School in Scunthorpe has around 180 pupils aged three to seven. The senior leadership team sought an effective system to put the school into lockdown. 
Christina Mallender, Headteacher and Caroline Bruce, Business Manager told us how installing Bodet Time’s lockdown alert solution has improved safety and efficiency, and even boosted staff morale. 
 

The Atomic Clock Ensemble in Space (ACES) launched on 21st April from the Kennedy Space Center. A few days later, a robotic arm installed ACES onto the Columbus laboratory of the International Space Station, facing Earth. It will carry out at least 10 extended measurement sessions, of 25 days each, during its 30-month mission.

To help you prepare for Martyn’s Law, we are holding a free webinar in June, in partnership with resilience expert AI Schools.

This year marked the 40th anniversary of the show, which promised to be bigger and better than ever. It certainly didn’t disappoint.
