How do I get teachers and staff to use myschool efficiently?

myschool is an enterprise solution, and getting the most out of it requires commitment from both teaching and non-teaching staff. Successful implementation of myschool, or any other ERP system, in your institution takes about 5% technical skills and 95% social skills.

General tips

1. Address the fear of making mistakes. Staff may worry about entering data incorrectly. Train your employees thoroughly and reassure them that mistakes are normal and can be corrected.
2. Delegate data entry strategically. At the start, avoid giving daily data-entry tasks directly to teachers. Instead, have a technically confident employee enter the data based on information the teachers provide offline.
3. Use incentives. Reward staff who use the system well and set clear consequences for not using it (the “carrot and stick” approach).
