Professional Quality School Live Streaming Everyone Will Rave About
Live streaming your school activities – from everyday classes to Friday night games – should keep you, students, parents, and your community connected.
And running your school’s live stream should be simple and deliver a fantastic broadcast every single time.
But is that a reality for you? Is live streaming your activities simple and does it deliver every time? Or do you have gear that’s not working correctly? Do parents complain about poor connections? Do you have trouble getting the support you need when you need it most?

School Live Streaming Challenges We Solve
Whether you’re tackling live streaming on your own and relying on Facebook and YouTube, or you’re working with a live streaming provider, there’s a good chance you are facing live streaming challenges that keep you and your audience from enjoying the professional broadcasts you want to deliver.
Are you doing it on your own?
Kudos for doing the hard work of getting your live stream up and running on your own. It’s a complicated world. And when you have to rely on Facebook and YouTube to stream your school activities, well, we know that scenario is full of its own challenges. And while there are a number of helpful articles and how-to videos, it doesn’t take the place of live tech support—especially when something isn’t working when it’s time to go live.
Are you stuck with a less-than-stellar streaming vendor?
Maybe you’re working with another live streaming vendor. Many of the schools we help were using another live streaming provider before they switched to WSN Live. While other services talk a good game, they lack several essential things that can make or break your broadcast.
What schools experience before working with WSN Live:
With Equipment
(Before WSN)
- Not sure what equipment to buy
- Don’t have a “tech” person to advise you
- Purchased gear that’s not working
- Your live streaming vendor requires you to use their specialized gear
- They won’t give you advice on which gear to buy
With Facebook and YouTube
(Before WSN)
- Copyright issues
- Getting live streams and video uploads rejected on YouTube and Facebook for violating their community standards
- They own the content you post, not you
- No customer support
Reaching Your Audience With Another Service
(Before WSN)
- Poor streaming quality – it’s choppy and full of interruptions and pauses
- Dropped signals which lead to frustrated viewers
- Delays lasting up to 8 minutes
- Fans can’t easily watch when or where they want to
- You can’t go live on-demand because everything has to be scheduled in advance
Lackadaisical Support
(Before WSN)
- Their support isn’t great and isn’t available when you need them most (e.g. on Friday night five minutes before the game)
- They won’t help with gear questions
- Limited support hours and never the same person
- They won’t give you any guidance or support for your gear
- They keep part of your ad revenue
- Getting unexpected invoices for data overages
With everything else you and your staff have to deal with, live streaming should be the least of your headaches.
