The Challenge
Established in 1979, Condell Park Christian School has steadily grown in numbers and resources over the years. Today, their school community comprises around 100 students. Being a smaller school made it more challenging to find a cloud-based system that was reasonably priced, flexible, and offered support tailored to a school with specific needs. With their previous system, Condell Park Christian School found it hard to access good support and had to rely on multiple systems to manage communications, learning outcomes, student wellbeing, and school processes.
Choosing Compass
One key factor that influenced the decision was the ability to replace multiple systems with a single source of truth. In addition, Compass’s tailored onboarding process for each school’s needs and timeline ensured a smooth, stress-free transition. Finally, Condell Park was swayed by a system that catered to all stakeholders within their school community – school leaders, educators, administrative staff, parents/carers and students. With a dedicated parent portal and app, and a range of methods for communicating with parents and staff, such as emails, push notifications, and news feed posts, everyone feels more connected, with greater transparency and easier access to information.
Results
Regarding their students, they have seen improvements in behaviour and performance due to greater accountability. Parent engagement and satisfaction have also increased, and staff are feeling less frustrated due to an efficient and intuitive system.
The biggest ROI, however, is the support. Being able to access free, reliable and expert support has left them feeling valued as a small school and confident that they can work through any issues in a timely manner.
