New software for Corporation schools demonstrated

Staff Reporter

New software that would provide online the entire details of a student’s right from the time he/she gains admission to a school to the time the student leaves the school was demonstrated by a private company to the Corporation officials.

According to Mayor S.M. Velusamy, the Management Information System could also be used for online monitoring of teachers, students’ attendance and school administration.

“Parents will be able to view their child’s marks and attendance online. Further, questions banks will also be available online through this software for the benefit of students. Examination results can also be announced online,” he said.

This system would be soon implemented in Corporation schools, the Mayor added.

According to education department officials, this software was likely to be implemented as a pilot project at the Corporation Girls Higher Secondary School at Ramakrishnapuram for students of Standards IX and XI.
