Description

Helix is an innovative cloud-based management system designed for secondary and composite schools across New Zealand. It consolidates various aspects of student management, including attendance tracking, assessment, NCEA reporting, scheduling, communication, and payment processing into a single, integrated platform, eliminating the inefficiencies caused by duplicated data entry and disconnected applications that hinder school administration. This comprehensive system provides leadership teams with real-time insights into student attendance, performance, and engagement; teachers can easily take attendance and view student records from any device; and caregivers have access to reports, attendance information, and payment options through the user-friendly Helix app. Furthermore, Helix ensures secure data sharing with over 200 external systems via API connections, such as Xero and Ezypay, enhancing its functionality. The platform is hosted in an ISO 27001 certified data center and meets the standards set by the Safer Technologies 4 Schools framework. Developed by MUSAC Ltd, Helix draws on over thirty years of experience in providing support to New Zealand educational institutions, ensuring it meets the unique needs of schools in the region. This system represents a significant leap forward in streamlining school management processes and improving overall efficiency.
