MIS?

 Hi

I've looked at last years discussion of OSS MIS systems but would  welcome some further  help.

I've been asked about a "free or low cost  Windows SIMS that is computer based rather than web based."  Probably for  international use. Can anybody help, is anyone using one or could  point me to someone else to talk to?

Thanks

School Closures

I'm working with quite a number of schools on http://myschoolclosures.com

 

The idea behind the project is that parents and teachers can be notified in the case of a closure, registration can be done from inside of a school learning platform/website and all school info is available using the api.
