Everest can rejuvenate SIMS without the risks associated with changing MIS. It is simple to implement and as a hosted application requires little management, minimising the burden on staff. Everest is all that is needed to provide teachers with remote access to update and view information, communicate with parents and students, set and manage homework, provide access to school documents and learning resources. Parents are engaged with the school and their child’s learning using the Everest unified student and parent apps.
Everest provides the ideal opportunity for schools to save money, reduce operational overheads and provide teachers with a modern, flexible solution.
Having comprehensive assessment data has never been more important. Everest provides online access to SIMS marksheets for teachers to enter marks, grades and comments for assessments, interim and end-of-term reports at anytime from anywhere.
Teachers also have easy access to classroom grade books and other student data giving a comprehensive picture of each student’s performance.
To encourage student self-reflection and personal development homework marks, test results, reports and more can be shared via the Everest Student and Parent Apps.
Everest provides a single, modern web solution for schools that use SIMS. It presents data in a way that teachers find easy to use and update without duplication or delay. Everest is accessible from web-enabled devices so offers teachers flexibility and greatly simplifies administration tasks, saving time. For reliable communications, the Everest Apps give students and parents instant access to performance information, school reports, policy documents and resources.
Truro School has found Everest intuitive to use, was quick and easy to set up and adopted by our staff after a relatively brief training in September 2019. The parent body welcomed the App and pupils quickly adapted to using the homework module and checking to see ‘the work on Everest’. Customer support has been outstanding.

I am really enjoying using Everest. The daily class attendance is a great electronic way for me to track and monitor attendance whilst the gradebook is saving me tons of paper and time, as I can enter my formative assessments on the spot, from my iPad. This is exactly the tool that I needed.

As part of Cayman Prep and High School’s toolset for vigorous delivery of quality e-learning, the school has used Everest to deliver teaching and learning resources to our students, as well as monitor and feedback to them. Everest is set up to link into other e-learning tools such as Microsoft Teams. It has been highly successful and gainfully used across the school to support staff, students and parents. We have been very happy with this platform and the support given by EDU365. A brand that certainly lives up to its name!

Using Everest our teachers find it easy to take registration throughout the entire school site. The interface is well designed and intuitive allowing all levels of user easy access to information. Setting assignments is simple yet flexible enough to meet the needs of our teachers and it allows parents and students easy access to not just assignments but behavior, attendance and grades. Everest overcomes most of the challenges that our previous application was unable to achieve.

As a parent of twin boys tracking homework and classes was a nightmare. The Everest software has alleviated the stress and constant asking my boys “Do you have any homework?” I find the phone app gives me instant access to these activities in a fast and efficient way. It also allows me to check on attendance, if they are late to classes, as well as looking at their merits.

When Covid-19 hit, we were in the middle of our school holidays and were quickly faced with the situation of converting our bricks and mortar school into an online school. This posed many challenges for all members of the community. Everest provided us with an effective means to communicate with students and parents, issue work, and continue our reporting and assessment cycle. Everest has an easy to use interface which means that students and parents can easily find the work that is required of them and receive direct communications from their teachers.

You can see everything about a student in one place. I put all my subject resources and lesson plans into it so I can share with my classes. It’s great for sharing homework with students and parents.

Since the school’s been closed I’ve been joining live lessons, via Everest, so my days have been as near to normal as they can be! I’ve also been able to hand in my work and get feedback from my teachers so my homework is the best it can be. Handing in work is very quick and easy to do.
Harry, Student
Everest is so easy to use and everything I need to keep tabs on my school work is in one place on my phone — I love it!
Eleri, Student
Everest Homework Tracking has not only saved me from ‘death by email’ it allows me to see who handed in what, when and associated comments from me my students and their parents. This has greatly assisted me in providing focused feedback and planning future lessons effectively at this difficult time. An invaluable tool.
