Where do I begin? (From the beginning, one would say)
KAMAR - definately the way to go. No more paper trail.
Pastoral - 3 Different Levels (Classroom Teacher, Dean, Senior Management)
Excellent for Deans - If a student misbehaves or is doing well in class, the classroom teacher
makes a comment on the childs behaviour, the teacher also selects the consequence using KAMAR and as soon as the information is entered it is automatically sent to the Dean.
No more receiving irritating notes in your pigeon hole and having to look for a place to file them and then losing it. YAY KAMAR.
But wait there's MORE
Attendance - Great, it even calculates for you how many days the student has or hasn't attended your class at the end of the week (so you don't have to be a mathmetician)
Timetable - You know it can be a HOHA, but if you have a good tutu, it's all good.
As like everything it's hard at the beginning but there is a LIGHT at the end of the Tunnel.
We are still learning about it.
Oh one more thing, you can even import student photos (Great for New Teachers)
Ang showed me how to use the Markbook (ngawari as)
Okay, that's it.

Whaea Terri you ARE sooooo informed. Dawn
Great stuff Terri!
Don't forget though thast you still need to do your paper form class registers until you do a full year!
We've been using it for a year now. I find it a HUGE help...some don't use it :( (Must get the boss onto that!)
So - the question is - how do we get everyone on board? A couple of years ago our boss made it mandatory for everyone to do their reports on computer (classroom manager actually). It worked and got everyone using it. We worked together as a team, the more confident teachers helped those not so confident. As for Kamar, the plan is to start slow - by encouraging everyone to do the daily register. This will be our first step and we will go from there.
