A whole new system for managing educational Data

The OpenEMIS initiative aims to deploy a high-quality Education Management Information System (EMIS) designed to collect and report data on schools, students, teachers and staff. The system was conceived by UNESCO to be a royalty-free system that can be easily customized to meet the specific needs of member countries.

The MoE of Maldives has been pursuing its effort to the systematic collection and organization of educational data through EMIS since the early 2000s, in accordance with the global initiative guided by the Dakar Framework for Action (MoE of Maldives, 2001).  In 2015, OpenEMIS project was initiated in response to the changing context and needs of the education system in the Maldives and as a means of achieving better education outcomes by taking advantage of the latest information technology. Especially, a custom-built Early Warning Tracking system was integrated to more systematically address the issue of out-of-school children in the Maldives as well as in response to the global initiative [Out-of-School Children Initiative (OOSCI)], led by a partnership between the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) and UNICEF.  The objectives of the project are (a) to ensure that existing education data are put to good use, (b) to rectify current gaps in the country’s EMIS by replacing the old system with a new system fully owned by the government, (c) to build capacity and transfer technology for the government to be able to update and manage the new EMIS from year to year, (d) to leverage technological mechanisms for education information dissemination, and (e) to provide data analytics training to education planners to ensure that the data collected by EMIS are integrated with all education-related data in the country for improved decision-making. 

As this school is operated by the MOE, all our student informations are in MOE by EMIS and they are calling this system as MEMIS (Maldives Education Management Information System)
