    Student Records

    Hi all,

    I am a Principal of a Primary school in South Africa.


    I need to track the progress of learners in my school on problems reported!

    I need a database that could:
    1. Enter problems like i.e. a Bullying incident..
    2. The person entering the incident needs to be recorded + date
    3. Details of incident
    4. Timeline of steps taken
    5. Attaching any and or supporting documents (pdf??)
    6. Reports is a timeline of specific problems and where they're at.


    I would appreciate any help immensely...

    Two places to start

    Hi Freek!

    Here's a whole repository of database designs, many of which are for schools - see education and school and student categories. Start there.

    http://www.databaseanswers.org/data_models/

    Here's a great source for how to think about designing a database and/or an application, by Access MVP Roger Carlson. See his articles on Database Design and Application design.

    After you've had a chance to look those over, please feel free to come back and ask specific questions. You'll have quite a few.

    If this answered your current needs, please mark the thread closed.
