Midas Systems' products are specifically designed for use across the entire ‘Post 16’ education sector, i.e., wherever institutions and businesses need to provide and manage additional support to learners, trainees and students to help them achieve their goals when they have a disability, learning difficulty, language or other learning support need.
Our flagship products bring the benefits of ownership and transparency of data on learning support provision (as recommended by Ofsted) to everyone concerned. From managers, administrators and MIS departments in the office, to tutors and other support practitioners working with students. SpirALS and TEAM make it easier to do your job better.
SpirALS integrates with your main college systems and provides a comprehensive best practice framework for planning and monitoring all areas of provision. From 'pre-entry' through to outcomes SpirALS enables immediate access to information for audit, inspection and funding.
The TEAM add-on module for SpirALS runs on your intranet and feeds into the main SpirALS database enabling attendance logging, session plans and reviews, learners’ comments, targets and achievements to be recorded in a simple-to-use, browser-based interface by the staff providing support.
SpirALS uses the contributions from TEAM to highlight any errors, ommisions or inconsistencies in your data, and then uses the information to accurately and automatically calculate or update each individual students' support costs.
Together, these products minimise the administrative burden and ensure that there is a seamless trail of evidence from real-time delivery to actual cost of provision Their implementation removes the need for your Learning Support, MIS or IT departments to develop and continually maintain ad hoc systems, allowing them to focus on their key objectives.
Choose ‘SpirALS’ if you want a comprehensive system for the management and administration of support and funding.
Choose ‘SpirALS with TEAM’ if you want all the benefits of SpirALS as well as comprehensive support session evidence that can be used to automatically calculate and maintain highly accurate individual learner support cost information.
Please see Success Stories and Case Studies where you can read about the dramatic improvements in practice and delivery that have been achieved after implementation of SpirALS and TEAM.
"At our last audit, I sat and reviewed everything in SpirALS & TEAM… all the data the auditors needed was immediately accessible. It takes two seconds to run a report - and it’s extremely accurate!"
