KentVision Project

• Nicholas and Jenny are working together as they did on the Admissions project.

• We now have an “embryonic” KentVision Support Team which initially is looking after the admissions functionality and report to Steve Holdcroft

• The project is progressing well with build work now being undertaken.

• The analysis of what we currently do and what the system can offer (without extensive customisation) is highlighting issues that we need to work through to find a solution.

• We are looking for additional staff to support the training and business change
