PAGS vs your MISYour MIS is built for compliance, attendance, behaviour, and statutory returns. It does that job well. It was never designed to answer questions about learner need, intervention impact, or EHCP evidence. PAGS sits on top connected to the same data and adds the layer that your MIS can’t.
Curriculum, MIS, and SEND data combine into a single view of need.
No rip and replace. PAGS connects with the systems schools and trusts already use, keeping curriculum data, attendance, and timetabling in your MIS, and adding the learner-need layer above.
Each of these is a daily leadership question. Each requires data your MIS doesn’t carry. Each is answered by PAGS, without leaving your existing systems behind.
MIS: shows the cohort scored below average. No further breakdown by learner need available.
PAGS adds: SEN-filtered curriculum analysis in one click. See whether 68% of the underperformers have identified needs and where the gap is. Choose between a teaching response and a provision response, with evidence either way.
MIS: shows attendance and grade decline at term end. Useful in retrospect, not in real time.
PAGS adds: live provision impact scores, per learner, per week. The SENCO and SLT see which interventions are working, and which aren’t, before half-term, not after the next data drop.
MIS: shows assessment results and attendance. No context on what each learner needs in the classroom.
PAGS adds: a full learner profile from day one. Pupil Passport, current targets, what works, what to avoid, ready before the first lesson. No handover meeting required.
MIS: shows attendance, exclusions, and end-of-year grades, not provision-level outcomes.
PAGS adds: cost per learner versus progress score, every term. Make the SEND budget case to governors with provision-level evidence, not anecdote.
MIS: stores assessment outcomes and statutory data. Not the qualitative trail of intervention and impact an inspector wants.
PAGS adds: a complete, timestamped, attributed audit trail of every assessment, target, intervention, and parent contact, built by daily practice and ready before you knew you’d need it.
PAGS is not a replacement for your MIS. It is a complement.
The learner-need layer your MIS was never designed to carry.
Compliance-grade. Necessary. Doesn’t answer leadership questions about learner need.
Built on top of your existing MIS. No data migration. Schools live in 1–2 days.
Instead of seeing three children a day because of all the different hurdles we used to go through, I can now see up to five students a day. Before, interventions were not being recorded. Now the whole school is doing them.
