That looks good Gary, I'll pass this around. what do you use for your exams entries and is it compliant with the latest format?
Adrian I have not started on the exams yet, but it will be cpmliant when it arrives! The exams will come as a natural consequence of developing the schema for the rest of the data. regards garry ----- Original Message ----- From: "garry saddington" <garry@joydiv.fsnet.co.uk> To: <suse-linux-uk-schools@suse.com> Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2004 8:12 AM Subject: Re: [suse-linux-uk-schools] Timetables and all that stuff

Thanks, I'll take a look (walks acroos campus...)
Are there any web based ones available since we're all windowy here.
Just
had the sims/.net sales people sniffing about! Hows the schools
project
going, is anyone using it?
I've heard that something like this is being developed at Skegness Grammar school. Not sure if it has been open sourced yet, but I believe the intention may have been to do so. That's Garry Saddington doing that. He has based it on Plone and I've seen an early version of it running.
Parts of it are in use at Skegness Grammar see www.scholarpack.org for
some
details. I am still actively developing this to be a complete MIS for schools, not a modular thing that extorts money at each purchase . It is designed from the ground up around a MySQL database schema nad users Zope
and
XML technologies to handle all government requirements (CTF,CBDS and
PlASC)
simply - there is a large PDF to follow for SIMS! My present job is not giving me much time for development and so if any offers are forthcoming I may be tempted! regards garry
We'd like to be involved in developing or improving this sort of application and have contacts with a couple of schools who are also interested in a SIMS alternative.
Would you or anyone else be interested in funding continued development on an Open Source SIMS alternative?
