Championing Arbor at BMS
Assistant Headteacher Mr MItman started the week by sharing some top tips in our Monday Magic Moment demonstrating how staff could work even more smartly with our new management information system Arbor.
Changing a management information system in any organisation is a massive undertaking and, whilst we are aware of some ongoing glitches in the system, we have generally been really pleased at the school and have received many positive comments from all stakeholders about Arbor. We would like to thank all parents and carers for their support and patience as we work hard to improve things. As we continue to share best practice, as we did on Monday morning, we know that it will continue to bring about huge improvements over time.
