What’s new in School MIS
Ofsted Inspection Companion
Get an up-to-date inspection pack in minutes. Arbor pulls together the key data that inspectors need to see, structures it in line with the new framework, and uses clear, guided prompts to help you generate a narrative that truly reflects your school. Learn more.
Assignments Reporting
The new page gives you a comprehensive table view of all student assignments. It includes customisable columns, advanced filtering, and the ability to group data by course, student, staff, or assignment. Learn more.
New Data Retention page
You can now bulk manage the deletion of student data in Arbor, according to rules you set for student groups and for individual data areas, or entire student records. Plus, no need to manually add data retention rules – simply tell Arbor the rule you want to create, and it will help create it for you. Learn more.
Student Summary improvements
If you’re using our AI-powered Student Summary feature, you now have more control over which data to include in the summary. You can also tailor the summary for specific audiences like parents/guardians, school staff, or students. Plus, translate it into multiple languages in one click.
Assets and Contracts in Arbor Finance
Gain full control and visibility of your assets and contracts. Easily record items like school laptops (and who they’re issued to), manage contract timelines, get automatic depreciation reporting, and guarantee accuracy for your next audit. Learn more.
TimeTabler 2026 updates
The latest update is here, including the ability to amend a teacher’s initials across the system, and to send the Staffing Proforma workbook to a Head of Department from within TimeTabler.
