Jamaica School administrative System (JSAS) to be used in all schools

The Ministry of Education is endeavouring to have at least 600 schools using the JSAS software by September 2009. A team from the MIS Unit will be visiting schools over the next few weeks to assist with installation and setup, while the Professional Development Unit (PDU) will be conducting intensive training to equip principals and teachers with the requisite skills to use the software.

Those who have the technical competencies may download and install the software using the guidelines below. Additional help can be obtained by contacting the MIS Unit of the Ministry at:
