This case study explores how ILM Schools significantly improved school operations using an advanced School Management Information System (MIS) like Compass MIS.
School Profile
ILM Schools, formerly known as Cardiff Muslim Primary School. This full-time, independent faith-based school, has been serving the heart of Cardiff, the capital city of Wales, for nearly 20 years.
The Challenge
Before using Compass, ILM Schools faced significant challenges with managing school operations efficiently. Communication with parents was often delayed due to manual processes, tracking student attendance and absences was cumbersome, and organising school events lacked a streamlined system. These inefficiencies took up valuable staff time and often caused delays in delivering key information.
The school recognised the need for a system that could centralise school operations, enhance communication, and streamline administrative tasks. The school’s criteria for choosing a solution included ease of use, robust communication tools, attendance management capabilities, and the ability to manage events and activities effectively.
“Compass stood out as the ideal solution to meet our needs and support the school community better.”

The Solution
ILM Schools chose Compass as their new MIS because of its comprehensive features, user-friendly interface, and strong reputation within the education sector.
“The implementation process was smooth and well-supported. The Compass team provided excellent customer service, guiding us through each step of the setup and addressing our queries promptly.”

The Outcome
Since implementing Compass, the school have experienced significant improvements in efficiency and productivity. Communication with parents is now faster and more streamlined, reducing delays and ensuring important information is shared promptly.
Attendance tracking has become seamless, saving staff several hours each week. Additionally, event management is more organised, and we’ve noticed an increase in parental engagement through the Compass app.
Compass has transformed day-to-day operations for ILM Schools by simplifying processes and enhancing overall efficiency. Staff spend less time on administrative tasks, allowing them to focus more on teaching and student support.
“I would highly recommend Compass to any school looking for a reliable, user-friendly, and comprehensive MIS. It has streamlined our operations, improved communication, and saved us valuable time. Compass is more than just a tool – it’s a game-changer for schools wanting to enhance efficiency and engagement.”
