At the individual student level, students and teachers can analyse the learning patterns together, identifying areas of strength and those where support and guidance are needed.
At the group level departmental heads and subject leaders can ensure the school meets the collective needs of a group or class. That translates into the school's decisions about designing and planning the curriculum and allocating time and resources.
At the level of overall school accountability the senior management team and governors can ensure the school is identifying its strengths and weaknesses.
Doing this can improve results in exams and can also have an effect socially as well as academically. It can also make the relationship between teachers and pupils greater; this is something which is needed to make the school and students successful.
The progress of each individual can be reviewed.
The way it can benefit parents, is that on nights like parents evening, teachers can produce reports on their children, and this can be automatically printed using the MIS system. This way parents can have a clear view of the progress of their child and the thought about teachers being bias will not be present.
Parents can follow their child’s progress on the internet, instead of coming into school on parents evening. This can be good, especially for working parents as they may not have time to come in. they can check the progress of their children in their workplaces or at home as nowadays most people and especially companies have access to the internet.
Using this system makes the child feel as though his work is constantly being analyzed and is viewable by parents. This way the child will know he has to work hard. This can also make the child feel part of the school whereas without this system the child will feel nobody knows him so he has nothing to worry about.
This can benefit the school, the teachers and the pupils; it can also benefit parents and also the government. This is because it can be made easier to differentiate between other schools as it is all done electronically. The government can also easily review the performance of the schools.
The type of data that can be entered, for example, is results of homework, quality of work, behaviour, attendance, punctuality, and attitude to learning. This can be presented to senior staff, the pupils themselves and the parents.
You can also have an electronic register which is done directly on the computer instead of on a piece of paper. This means you do not have to repeat entering data, mistakes will be less likely. There will be less redundant data and less time consuming.
