Planned Developments

Gender & Ethnic Pay Comparison – This is an important dimension of analysis that users have asked if it possible to include. We are exploring the data entry requirements to be able to achieve this – and dashboard charts that will simply illustrate equality and distribution.

MIS Integration – We have been working for some time to consider integration to a number of popular software solutions. This is becoming more of a reality and we are looking to draw key data from you existing MIS to reduce the setup time and also to monitor the practice as things change through the year. We will keep you informed of progress in this regard.

School Group Module – We continue to structure the SMARTcurriculum Application to add a fully functional school group comparison module. Many of the developments above are on the road-map to that goal. We will keep you posted as to the progress and likely release date. Our plan is to have this development ready for initial release in early 2022.
 
SMARTcurriculum App developments are included within your annual licence, some module development will be included at additional costs.
