Compass Education

“Compass stood out as the ideal solution to meet our needs and support the school community better.””

“Parents find Compass really easy to use. They can see what’s happening in school, make payments online and stay connected with their child’s learning.””

“The Parent App has made a huge difference to our communications, and the feedback from parents has been really positive.””

“Compass has streamlined many of our administrative tasks and made communication with parents much easier.””

“Compass MIS has been transformational for our school, streamlining our systems, enhancing efficiency, and significantly reducing staff workload, thereby improving overall wellbeing. Our commitment to innovation ensures we stay ahead of the curve, continuously developing our school systems to meet evolving educational reporting requirements and regulatory changes. We have worked closely with Compass MIS to stay up to date with the latest updates, ensuring our processes remain optimised and compliant.””

“Tasks that once took far too long are now quick and straightforward, making daily operations much more transparent and efficient. Compass has reduced duplication across our admin processes by more than half.””

“Compass is a great system. It improves the wellbeing for staff. It enables pupils to know where they are with their learning and parents stay informed through effective communication.””

“My absolute fav features and modules in Compass are the conference module for parents evening, the school reports module and the news feed. The Conference module has simplified and reduced the workload for parents evening by weeks!! The set up of parents evening is now a simple straight forward task, the management of it is simple to use and the parents have found it so helpful. The parents find the booking system easy to use, it has reduced errors in booking as it does not allow for double booking ensuring smooth and accurate timing for the parents to meet with their child teachers.””

“It was always an easy decision, and one of the best decisions I’ve made because it has improved the wellbeing of my staff.””

“Staffing is our most expensive resource, we need to make sure our staff are happy, well-balanced, and ready to work. When we put Compass in place, we enabled our staff to be the happiest they could be. And when staff are happy, they can give their best to our pupils.””

“Compass has transformed the way we operate – streamlining tasks, improving communication, and giving us more time to focus on what truly matters: our students.””

“The transition to Compass, from our previous MIS, has been seamless thanks to the amazing support from the onboarding team. Their dedication and enthusiasm to making sure everything went smoothly was very reassuring and filled not only myself but our whole team with confidence. Their dedicated support and service has enabled our school to create new working systems to reduce workload and improve many areas of our business.””

“Compass has made my school day far more productive and enjoyable because so many processes that used to take hours can now be done in just a few clicks.””

“Compass is a respected and commonly used platform across Victorian Government Schools. While we have a complex setting, Compass had options for flexibility that allowed for use in our context, and had similar examples in Designated Purpose school settings across Victoria.””

“We had a pilot program testing several school management systems, and Compass was the most user-friendly and intuitive option for students and parents.””

“We undertook this project on a relatively short timeline and were thankful to Compass for supporting us in actually getting started using Compass from the beginning of Term 1 2023 – only two months after we had agreed to the contract and much earlier than our projected timeline for vendor selection and uptake.””

“Compass is a one stop shop that gives the school a snapshot of how any student is performing in seconds – all the information is there, easily accessible.””

“Compass has been profoundly transformative.””

“Compass is absolutely central to how our school operates, it’s hard to remember what things were like before it.””

“Introducing Compass has been overwhelmingly positive in helping us streamline our student record keeping, taking us to that next level as a school.””

“I’ve probably never dealt with a better help desk… 99.9% of the time, the help desk has the answer.””

“With Compass, we can share Individual Education Plans (IEP) with base schools more consistently, which supports continuity when students move between settings.””

“Compass is easier to use and navigate. As a school, we can choose what modules to focus on first and teachers can learn little snippets at a time. Outstanding support.””

“We were really pleased with Compass’s flexibility, which is probably the biggest thing, but also their knowledge of how the product works and syncs with other platforms.””

“Our implementation is progressing well. The support and onboarding experience provided by Compass has been exceptional, with a well-organised training plan and robust assistance for our steering group.””
