We hit a bit of a snag this week with our online tuition project. Unfortunately our programmer didn’t foresee the amount of work required to make the system totally secure on our new server. I’m not really sure what to do at the moment because the programmer is now unavailable for a few weeks, and I’m trying to decide whether to ask someone else to complete what has been started or wait for our current programmer to finish it off. All a bit annoying, but to be honest, I was surprised at how smoothly everything was running.
Elsewhere I’ve been changing a few things with our accounting system to make it run more smoothly. This was something that has to be done before online tuition starts anyway, because we need to update students’ accounts in real time. It’s been a bit of a struggle because of the two bank holidays, and no one really expects you to work, but I’ve got a fair amount done.
