Educational institutions have changed their way constantly since their inception, and the year 2020 saw one of the most significant changes in the education sector. After a rocky start in 2020 and after many online learning sessions, schools are more than ready in 2021 for a digital makeover. This change in dynamics is primarily due to school management information system (MIS) software.

Veda is a one-stop platform for school and college MIS software and digital learning platforms with over 600 schools across Nepal. This comprehensive school management system helps automate all school work, saving a lot of your time and energy—all the more reason for your school to go digital with Veda.

Here are 15 reasons why you should upgrade to Veda:  

1. To each their own

Veda provides different apps for teachers and students rather than having everything in just one app. As the priorities of teachers and students are different and just one app wouldn’t be easy to use for both parties, Veda makes sure your user experience is not compromised. The teachers’ app — Veda Guru puts more focus on the planning of courses, and assignments, homework. Veda for Students, on the other hand, has its focus on online classes and submission of homework and assignments. 

2. Online payment options

The integrated online payment options in Vedea like Khalti and eSewa help schools collect fees through the app. With digital wallet payment integration, it will remove the hurdle of setting an additional online payment for schools. Keeping records and track of bills collected also make financing seamless and reduces the effort needed in half. 

3. Online admission

Having the option to apply online enables schools to continue with admissions even during this lockdown. The Online Payment option integrated into Veda can help with paying admission fees.

4. Online result with Continuous Assessment System (CAS)

Veda has one of the best result systems available in the market. The CAS system enables teachers to input marks easily from their system i.e. app or web-based Content Management System (CMS) which generates reports, analyses, and detailed ledgers automatically without any hassle. Parents can also log in to the app to find their child’s results and analysis.

5. Ledgers 

It is easy for school administrators to keep track of every student and their progress with different ledgers. The visual representation of exam results throughout the year, comparing each student’s strengths and weaknesses will help teachers with individual planning of each student and put more effort. 

6. Push Notification

Communication can sometimes be tricky, especially between parents and teachers. If only there were an easy and effective way of communication between teachers, parents and students. This can be an easy feat with the notes feature on the Veda app. It allows teachers to send important messages to parents and students. 

7. Analytics 

Searching every students’ data through manual files is monotonous and highly time-consuming. Analytics in the Veda database manages students’ data that teachers can fetch anytime. The weekly class reports show graphs of students’ attendance and assignments. The systematic computational analysis of these data helps schools to plan their actions accordingly. Individual data of students can be accessed by teachers, principals and school administrators to keep track of student’s progress and take necessary action.  

8. Student evaluation 

At times like these, it’s hard for teachers to submit a report on students’ progress. Evaluation metrics incorporated in Veda, like General Evaluation, Remarks, and Merit/Demerit enables teachers to evaluate and assess students based on performance and other criteria. Management and administration can keep track of the evaluation directly from Veda, keeping in the way of all the classes and students.

9. Smooth and easy User Interface (UI) 

Educational institutions need to be comfortable spaces for students, teachers, and parents. The comfort of these three parties is the most crucial in any educational institution. Veda makes sure that there is constant communication between parents, teachers, and students. Parents are always worried about how their child is performing academically and want to be in constant touch with teachers.
