Parental Engagement and Management Reporting

Parental Engagement & Management Reporting

Online parental reporting is a hot topic among secondary schools in the UK. From September 2010, every secondary school will be required to provide parents with online access to information held on their child. Novotronix have developed a suite of online reporting tools that effectively integrate with an existing MIS so that schools can meet their DCSF 2010 targets.

For many teachers, accessing important data held on their MIS is a time-consuming process, as they have to make repeated requests to MIS staff for vital information. Novotronix have developed a suite of intuitive, customised solutions that overcome this by seamlessly integrating with a schools’ MIS. Teachers are able to drill down into critical data such as pupil attendance, behaviour, timetabling and assessment grades. Having all this information readily available enables staff to spot trends and take pro-active intervention where needed.

The benefits go far beyond giving teachers vital data when and where they need it. Parents and non-teaching staff also gain from the integration of our reporting tools into a school’s MIS. Parents have a greater opportunity to be involved in their child’s secondary education as they gain online access to a whole range of information such as grades, timetabling and homework. They can also communicate online with teachers, helping to improve teacher/parent relationships.

By automating mandatory reports and returns means that MIS staff can get away from the constant interruptions for information and gain back valuable time, too.
