Abstract
The aim of the new Education Management
Information System (EMIS) in St. Vincent and the Grenadines
is to provide accurate and timely information to
stakeholders including government departments, educational
institutions, and local, regional and international
organizations. The Ministry of Education's goal is to
establish an EMIS that allows its 67 primary schools and 27
secondary schools to enter their information in real time.
EMIS staff includes a deputy education planner and a
statistician, but the EMIS primarily relies on school
principals to deal with issues of data accuracy and
timeliness, improved teacher training, increased
inter-agency coordination, improved personnel efficiency,
and better data management and protection.
