Case Study: Congleton High School drives school improvement with Advanced Progresso

Congleton High School Makes the Move From SIMS To Progresso

Congleton High School, a specialist engineering academy, faced the challenge of replacing its outdated Capita SIMS management information system (MIS) to better utilize data for driving educational standards. After a stringent two-year review process, the school selected the Progresso MIS from Advanced to gain a modern, integrated solution.

Advanced implemented its cloud-based Progresso system, providing staff with real-time access to student information via a web browser. The solution eliminated the need for disparate bolt-on modules and offered the interoperability the school required. The Principal reported that initial teething problems were rectified and the school grew in confidence daily, with the system demonstrating tremendous potential to drive school improvement by making crucial data accessible.
