Notice Title

Notice Description

A cloud-based Management Information System (MIS) is required for use in both primary and secondary schools within the authority. The system must be scalable, secure, and user-friendly, with pricing models that reflect the differing needs of primary and secondary education providers. The objective is to procure a single MIS solution (or set of compatible solutions) that enables schools to manage key administrative, statutory, and educational tasks efficiently while supporting collaboration across the authority.
