IT at School

Forget about pockets of loose change with cashless catering systems.

Fed up of forgetting your lunch money or discovering a hole in your pocket and forced to resort to a packet of space invaders for lunch. Cashless catering systems have been designed specifically for the education market to improve meal time administration and operational efficiency. It will help to reduce any obvious discrepancy between those with a bit more money to spend and those who are eligible for free school meals. You can top up your account at self-service terminals or pester your parents to add money online.

Big Brother comes to school…

Electronic registration systems are also used in some schools to track you as you wander round. Big Brother for the classroom! The system enables schools to access real-time and old attendance records so they’ll know exactly when you sneak in! You simply plant your fingerprint on a screen or use a smartcard and the school can immediately lay its hands on accurate and immediate attendance and punctuality figures. No more over-sleeping or missing the bus. It also means you can’t get someone else to sign you in or shout “Yes miss” when your name is called at registration. But then again, if you want a successful future as an IT professional you need to attend all your classes!!
