School Management Information Systems (MIS)
A school MIS is vital for creating a centralised place for all school staff to access reporting and data. Choosing the right MIS will lower your operating and capital costs, require fewer on-site technical visits and minimise downtime required for upgrades and rollouts. This will increase your efficiency, especially for large academies and multi-academy trusts (MATs).
- everything in one place, providing a holistic view

School finance systems
Selecting the correct finance software for your school is essential in ensuring that the school’s accounts can be produced in accordance with the appropriate reporting requirements for your local authority or academy trust.
The correct software will:
