Ensurement by the Government of precise tracking of students absent from school in the upcoming school year
In a recent announcement, Fernando Alexandre, a key figure within the Ministry, has highlighted an issue with the Ministry's services regarding the recording of students without classes. The current system lacks applications capable of tracking or recording these students, creating gaps in managing student attendance or enrollment data effectively.
This problem has surfaced due to a number of students eligible for higher education not applying for placement, suggesting potential administrative difficulties in tracking these students properly.
To address this issue, Alexandre proposes the implementation of a new information system. This system would be designed specifically to record the number of students without classes, thereby improving data management regarding student status and potentially addressing concerns related to students not applying for higher education or being unaccounted for in the system.
Alexandre emphasised that the development or implementation of this new system would involve consultation and collaboration with stakeholders, such as parents and schools, to ensure the content and functionality of the system meet the necessary requirements.
Currently, the Ministry's services boast 212 applications, but none of them can cater to the specific need of recording students without classes. Alexandre expressed hope that the new information system will prove to be a viable solution to this issue.
The Ministry's plans to implement this new system could mark a significant step towards improving the efficiency and accuracy of student data management, ensuring that no student slips through the cracks in the system.
The following proposal by Fernando Alexandre aims to rectify the issue with student tracking within the Ministry by implementing a new information system focused on education-and-self-development, particularly online-education, emphasizing learning opportunities for students without classes. The new system would address gaps in managing student attendance or enrollment data effectively, potentially resolving concerns related to students not applying for higher education or being unaccounted for in the system.
