| Norfolk Local Authority roll out e¹ across county |
| Monday, 06 April 2009 10:19 |
| With some 440 schools spread across rural and semi-rural communities and the challenges of reporting, a new approach to data management was required. With new government initiatives always on the horizon, combined with the significant cost of serving so many schools across a wide geographical area, Norfolk’s objective was simple, yet ambitious: To future proof To save money To save time To raise attainment. Every school had their own server running their own Management Information Systems (MIS) which tracked and recorded information about the pupils and staff. The cost of running 440 separate servers, 440 separate back up solutions together with the cost of collecting that data made targeting the MIS an obvious move.
