PowerSchool is the world's most widely deployed student information system administering nearly 10 million students in over 60 countries around the globe."
PowerSchool embraces a wide variety of functions and supports a wide range of schools and districts - from schools as small as 25 students to districts as large as 80,000 students. The deep functions of a PowerSchool allow today's educators to make real-time decisions about each student while also giving them access to real-time information that allows student performance to be addressed in a timely manner. The major beneficiaries of this product would be the School Administrators, Teachers, Parents, Students, Counselors and IT Staff of schools.

This unanimously accepted student information system is expected to change the way Indian schools administer work, thereby moving school education to the next level", re-iterated Iyer.
