Or should I say "help the teachers". Programming skills are always useful to people with everyday problems. The government puts all sorts of pressures on schools to be pro-active with its approach to data gathering and analysis which aids the school to assess what progress a child is or is not making. This does leave a need for convergence with all this data knocking about. The school had a problem with lots of different teachers all entering data into separate spreadsheets and then someone having to collate all this onto a master sheet. Sounds like an easier solution....
BACK came to the rescue with a simple little tool that merges the data together from disparate sources to give one final output. Mindful of all the office automation issues when programming in .NET the solution does eaxctly what's required. We'd love to plough in and create a fully database driven solution that covers all the schools data aspects but alas funding would not allow it! Until then we look to respond to the aching needs of teachers in despair like knights in shining armour....
