AHF GRUNDSCHULE CASE STUDY

About AHF

The AHF Grundschule is a state-recognized private school in Leipzig,
Germany. It offers a stimulating learning environment, based on Christian
values and focuses on the individuality of each child.

It enrolls 160 students in Primary School, offering 2 distinct educational
curriculums: the “Schule” and the “Hort”. “Schule” curriculum consists of the
state-approved courses for pupils in the state of Saxony, while “Hort” is the
extracurricular activities program that makes the AHF educational offering
unique.

In AHF Grundschule, education goes far beyond the mere transfer of
knowledge. The school aims to shape the students in a lively and practical
way with parents being also part of this process

Challenges

As a multi-level school with “Shule” and “Hort” curriculums, AHF faced
serious challenges managing academic data and processes without having
a cloud-besed SIS in place.

The main objective of the research for a brand-new Student Information
System was to find a solution that would be end-to-end, without having to
rely on different systems for managing the various academic and back-office processes.

The school’s CEO, Steffen Schörner, was evaluating SIS vendors for more
than 5 years without being able to find an all-in-one solution that could
offer a “single source of truth” for managing his organization.
The various local-based SIS vendors were offering just parts of the required
functionality, thus creating the need for implementing a number of IT
solutions that would be difficult to work in sync.

CLASSTER SOLUTIONS

PAPERLESS ADMISSIONS

Students’ registrations and enrolment for each program can be carried out by parents in a paperless online environment, while all the relevant data are stored in the cloud.

COVID-READY
IT INFRASTRUCTURE

Having Classter up and running during the COVID-19 pandemic, allowed AHF to have a cloud-based IT infrastructure for collecting medical information in real time and reporting easily to the Saxony state authorities.

HYBRID LEARNING
ENVIRONMENT

The out-of-the-box integration with MS Teams allows teachers to easily switch to a distance learning environment according to a common timetable.

ATTENDANCE TRACKING

Teachers track attendance every morning on a Windows device through their personal portal, and information is pushed in real-time to the back office for following up with parents and scheduling the evening activities accordingly.
