The tools your school relies on every day – from task management and reporting to communication and essential admin – play a vital role in supporting better learning outcomes.
Individually, these tools can be highly effective. But when they operate in isolation, familiar challenges often emerge – duplication, inconsistencies, and a lack of visibility across the school.
Compass integrates your learning management system (LMS) with broader school operations – from reporting to wellbeing and co-curricular tracking – to support a more cohesive, efficient experience. It doesn’t replace the platforms your staff are already using. Instead, it connects them with school-wide processes to reduce manual work and improve clarity across teams.
Here’s how that connection plays out in practice.
Start with the tools your teachers already use
Introducing new systems shouldn’t mean disrupting what’s already working.
Compass integrates with leading LMS platforms including Canvas, Schoolbox, and Toddle – allowing teachers to stay with familiar tools while ensuring learning data can support broader goals.
Teachers can continue setting tasks, collecting work and providing feedback in the platforms they know. What changes is how that information moves through the school.
Once assessments are submitted, Compass ensures key data can feed into formal processes – like feedback cycles, academic tracking and family reporting – without re-entry or overlap.
Cut down on double-handling
When platforms aren’t connected, the same information often gets entered more than once.
Results recorded in one place are copied into another. Comments are rewritten for different audiences. Teachers spend more time managing systems than interpreting results.
Compass reduces this friction by allowing assessment data to move directly between platforms and into the workflows that rely on it.
Through integration with the Learning Task module, Compass provides a structured way to capture and organise assessments – even when they originate in your LMS. That means:
- Results and feedback link directly to reporting, streamlining the process.
- Task outcomes align with your school’s reporting framework.
- Student progress can be tracked with minimal admin.
Track learning with a longer-term lens
LMS platforms support the day-to-day flow of teaching and learning. Compass complements that by offering a broader view – helping schools see not just individual task outcomes, but long-term development.
When LMS data is captured through Compass – via Learning Tasks or linked assessment records – it feeds into tools like Progress Reports and Semester Reports, supporting:
- A consistent, term-by-term view of student achievement.
- Evidence-informed conversations about student growth.
- A single source of truth for leadership, families and support staff.
Rather than relying on snapshots, schools can use Compass to understand patterns, progress and learning behaviours across the year1.
Bring academic and co-curricular learning into one view
Classroom learning is just one part of a student’s experience. Leadership roles, creative pursuits, community engagement and sport all contribute to growth – but they’re often stored in separate systems.
Compass integrates with co-curricular platforms, enabling schools to view the full picture of a student’s development in one place. That means:
- Academic outcomes can be considered alongside co-curricular involvement.
- Reports and profiles reflect the whole learner.
- Engagement data can support student wellbeing and support planning.
For leaders, it brings a broader perspective to every decision. For families, it provides deeper insights into their child’s growth beyond the classroom.
Make data meaningful across roles
Connected systems don’t just reduce admin – they help your entire school team work more effectively.
With Compass, all relevant student information – from assessment and reporting to co-curricular and wellbeing – is accessible through a central platform. This makes it easier to:
- Collaborate across teaching, wellbeing and leadership teams.
- Keep parents informed with consistent, up-to-date information.
- Coordinate timely support and interventions.
Compass also supports consistent assessment through tools like Rubrics, helping ensure that even across different systems, your school’s feedback and grading practices remain aligned.
Connected systems. Better outcomes.
Your school doesn’t need more platforms – it needs better connections between the ones you already use.
By linking trusted teaching tools with reporting, co-curricular and wellbeing systems, Compass helps reduce duplication, improve visibility and support consistent student outcomes. When student data is connected across roles and systems, schools can make more informed, coordinated decisions – the kind that lead to better support and stronger outcomes for every learner2.
It’s not about changing how your teachers teach. It’s about ensuring the systems around them are working together – for the benefit of your whole school community.
