Why did you choose Skolengo Schooling software?

How do you manage the Grading duty settings for your School, which only grades by Skills?

As School principal, I'm in charge of setting up the Skills titles to ensure that we comply with the recommendations set out in the regulations. I define our Skills Repository in collaboration with the teachers and the subject team. Although setting up the Repository requires a bit of input work, the tool is easy to use and offers a clear and precise view of what has been defined. Our teams are now accustomed to this set-up and can easily carry it out from the start of the school year. The ability to customize titles is a real is a real asset.

What do you think of Skolengo's Class councils animation tools?

The School Principal can use animation tools to project each student's results on a large screen. At a glance, we can see the histogram showing the Ranking of the Student's Skills by Subject and Area, as well as the Teacher's Assessments and the progression of the Student's Skills throughout the year.

Taken together, these graphs provide educational teams with elements that enable them to assess the level of Student Ranking in a more refined way than with an obscure automatic calculation.

What do you think of Skolengo's Summary of skills?

The Grade-less report card highlights Skills by Subject, Curriculum elements worked on and subject Ranking on a scale of 1 to 4. It's a very clear statement, containing all the important information families need to keep track of their Child's learning.

What do you think is the strong point of the Grading duty service in the Schooling software?

The reformulation of Skills and the clarity of the report cards are a strong point in delivering Grading without a Grade to families.
For Teachers, the ability to combine the subject and base Gradings enables them to assess their subject and the base in the same teaching context.

Since the act of Grading is by definition subjective, the fact that Skolengo doesn't delegate it to an automatic algorithm has enabled us to implement a constructive and active approach to supporting students in their schooling. constructive and active approach to supporting Students in their Schooling.
