EMIS● Information is the basis of management, planning and evaluation
of an education system. ● EMIS should collect data, store data and process information
related to all the aspects of education including the human, physical, educational information.
● EMIS should inform the different actors and partners on the state of the sector, its internal and external efficiency, its pedagogical and institutional operation, its performance, shortcomings and needs.
● EMIS should support policy and decision-makers and other planning managers need clear, easy to interpret comprehensible documents, accompanied by relevant analyses on which to base their policies.

Success stories
● The national examination results are being entered asap those are released– Examination Commission does provide only the
analysis, not the grades.
● Helpful for Education Management– Recently, school term marks were collected through
this EMIS and actions were taken based on it.
● Some school print students’ progress report through the system
● Irregularities in appointments are identified● Being used by many people for research

Research & Publications
● Setup a formal framework for R&D – ITME?● Setup a repository to index all research studies relevant
to the NP education● Encourage teachers to publish research works in peer
reviewed journals● Work with organization like Jaffna Science Association
(JSA) to improve the research skills– Recently, PDE and ZDE worked with JSA to conduct research
methodology workshops for principals in the NP.
● Closely work with other educational institutions including graduate faculty of the University of Jaffna to conduct more research studies
So what do you think? How we can do this?

– Lack of platforms
– Learn to fail
– Develop skills required for 21st century (p21.org)
– Showcase students’ talents
● Students from Vanni and other rural areas out performing and wining more awards– But, we blame them for not passing exams
● Pilot this center at one district and take forward Open for comments!
