Arbor is a cloud-based Management Information System (MIS) used across all schools in Central Region Schools Trust to simplify school administration. It centralises key student data, including attendance, assessments, and behaviour, allowing school staff to access and manage information in one easy-to-use platform. With its intuitive interface, Arbor saves time by automating administrative tasks and streamlining communication between staff, students, and parents.

By using Arbor, schools can track student progress, generate detailed reports, and make data-driven decisions to support both teaching and learning. The system empowers educators to stay organised, improve student outcomes, and ensure a more efficient, transparent educational environment.
