Crossways Academy

Client Name: Crossways Academy

360ict Service: Financial Systems

Client Location: Brockley, South East London

 

Client Challenge:

 

Crossways Academy opened in 2004 as a leading light for 6th Form education in South London. As a new build the Academy had the opportunity to implement a management information system, without migratory concerns and so seeked a cost effective solution to enable students to successfully enrol when the college opened.

 

Our Solution:

 

360ict had much experience in both private and public education sectors and avoiding heavy consultancy fees was able to efficiently summarise and cost the possible options for implementation, recommending the use of Centime – a comprehensive web based student record management information system which had a strong emphasis on student support.

 

Client Result:

 

Crossways Academy opened for business on time with a superior management information system in place.

 

Client Testimonial:

 

“360ict has ensured we have implemented an excellent electronic register and student management and HR information system with first class support and responsiveness from the 360ict team who have managed the adaption of the system to suit our needs.”
