Our take
Educational data is invaluable in ensuring that students are meeting their potential - data such as attendance, behaviour, and grades. Educational professionals typically collect and aggregate this data across spreadsheets, but the time-consuming process of turning this mass of data into actionable insights often leads to it not being analyzed often or at all.
Panorama Education provides an all-in-one educational data platform for schools, featuring unified data entry and dashboards for the analysis of student information. The platform is fragmented into sections on student success, social-emotional learning, feedback surveys and positive behaviour, and provides personalized professional development experiences for teachers to help them better understand how to act on data.
Whilst educational data platforms are nothing new, Panorama Education has taken a smart approach by focussing on providing data entry, analysis, and professional development in a unified, accessible and user-friendly platform. Its recent acquisition of Mesa Cloud, a graduation management system that ensures students are on track to receive a diploma, further enhances its offering with the ability to auto-monitor and flag students who are off-track.
