Using the Norfolk Secondary Learning Platform, Sprowston High School and Long Stratton High School have successfully connected their Management Information System (MIS) to their Virtual Learning Environment. The Norfolk Secondary Learning Platform is powered by Fronter and it is expected that all secondary schools using Fronter will be able to link their MIS for automatic data integration. This means that all the classes, teaching groups, staff and students are automatically set up in the Learning Platform. This reduces administration significantly and students receive the right homework if they move classes.
Long Stratton High School is using Phoenix e1, whilst Sprowston High School use Capita SIMS. It is expected that Reepham High School and Fakenham High School (both using Facility CMIS from Serco) will have live integration from Tuesday, September 23rd 2008.
This development is part of the Norfolk e-Learning Strategy, designed to support all Norfolk Schools to make the most of online learning systems.
