The Admissions Authority has a duty to operate its published admissions procedures fairly and equally for all applicants. Preference forms are sent out to parents to choose the primary or secondary school that they wish their children to attend. To process these forms manually is an immense task, not only is it time consuming and expensive to employ the staff, it is challenging to ensure staff are following the correct process and avoiding mistakes.
Using ImageFast's Schools Admissions solution ensures that all applications are processed in a correct and timely manner.
The solution developed by ImageFast automates the collation and interpretation of preference forms. Forms are scanned then electronically converted to be passed through a powerful recognition engine that is able to extract data from the form. Once extracted, the data is then exported to a standard format or into an Admissions application or database.
