The register of quality of education includes:

1. Database.
2. Services.
3. Instruments.

The system of assessing the quality of education allows you to regulate the volume and content of incoming data, using the settings of users' private rooms within their authority and rights. Personal pages of parents are supplied with sets of tools and services. According to their structure and content of information, they differ from personal classrooms of other categories of users.

Accessing

For those wishing to control the quality of education in the school or DOW, an individual login and password are generated. The parents receive this information at the institution that their child visits. Any interested person is given a login and a password when addressing a caregiver or class teacher. According to statistics, currently more than 185,000 parents are registered in the database and have their own offices.

Benefits

Parents registered in the database can analyze and monitor the quality of education in various areas. In particular, they get access to the results:

• The external indicator for each educational institution of the city.
• Activities of the school. Parents, among other things, get access to information about the winners of contests, olympiads, competitions.
• The external indicator of the quality of education is specific to your child.
• Internal self-analysis of educational institutions.
• Individual development by your child of the basic program of the DOW taking into account its variability.
• Studies of basic general education subjects in primary school.
• Individual achievements of your child in the field of education, training, development.
• Supervisory and supervisory activities for the educational institution, carried out by the Department.

In addition, the quality system of education provides methodological and analytical materials. The study of the latter allows you to participate in the management tasks at the level of the educational institution. Thanks to the availability of sets of services and tools, parents not only can analyze the quality of education, but also conduct independent work with the content of the learning process. The portal created conditions for self-analysis, participation in significant events, communication with other users.

Distinctive features

The Capital Register of Education Quality is a single information city base. It is based not only on the results of statistics and the provision of information. The portal is formed in accordance with expert, objective assessments. It allows the user to work with the content of the learning process, analyze, determine at what level the quality of education is. It is also important that parents can manage the state of the educational process in accordance with the results obtained. The system uses numerical indicators, a conceptual apparatus, and analytical data.

Internal analysis

It is carried out by the educational institution during the whole academic year independently. This is necessary to ensure control of the pedagogical process and the ability to make managerial decisions in accordance with the results obtained. In school practice, this is expressed in the conduct of tests, a variety of testing and control works, sections of knowledge, including remotely. In the DOW, the implementation of these tasks is carried out through continued monitoring of the development of the pupil. During the monitoring, the register records all the indicators and achievements of the child. These results are processed automatically. The system builds dynamics, indicates stable successes, reveals and shows problem areas. As a result, parents receive full information about the development of their child.

External control

It is implemented by the Department of Education both on schedule and at the request of school principals. Such control is necessary for objectifying the indicators of children in accordance with the requirements of pedagogical standards. The register provides multifactorial automatic data analysis. This information is subsequently used by parents, civil servants, teachers' collectives, managers. Through this external and internal analysis, comprehensive monitoring is carried out, allowing timely and objective determination of the level at which the quality of education is located.

Independence of analysis

The objectivity of the external evaluation is provided by:

• Use at all operating levels of uniform materials for verification, formed in accordance with the base of standardized tasks. The latter pass through substantive and testological expertise.
• Comparison of external and internal control.
• Use of standardized unified technology for conducting knowledge checks, computer processing of results using mathematical statistics.

Planned activities

It should be noted that the capital is not the only city in which such an assessment of the quality of education is carried out. Standards are developed for all regions of the country. So, successfully entered in the 2014/2015 school year the register of quality education in the Tula region. Among the activities included in external control, it is worth noting:

1. State attestation using the mechanisms of independent analysis, USE.
2. Control of the conformity of training graduates and students to the requirements of educational standards (GEF, FKGOS).
3. Examination of the results of mastering the general curriculum in the framework of accreditation of institutions.
4. Diagnosis and monitoring of children's achievements.

The program also provides:

• Determining students' readiness to continue their education at the next stages.
• Evaluation of children's knowledge of subjects.
• Maintenance of GEF implementation in primary and primary schools.
• Intersubject and metaprojective diagnostics of students' achievements.
• Organizational and methodological support of international research.

Levels of use

The operation of the system is based on three elements:

1. Information field. At this level, the institution does not add any information to the database, but uses only the data that the Department of Education contributed to it.
2. Statistical field. At this level, the institution can receive reports when an internal evaluation is introduced.
3. Management field. If the institution uses the tools of internal and external analysis, the system issues detailed materials on which the quality of education in the pre-school or educational institution is determined.

Management field

At this level, you can see not only stable achievements, problem areas, discover factors that have influenced the child's achievement of certain results, but also form a further direction of development or develop a program for operational assistance to the student / educational institution. It is impossible manually or by any other traditional methods to calculate and analyze the indicators achieved by all the children of the class or the training group on existing topics, program elements, and skills that are laid down in the pedagogical standard. The quality register will give an estimate in a few seconds in the automatic mode. This, in turn, allows the teacher to make operational adjustments to his work, exclude dragging, which is often inefficient. The teacher, based on the results obtained, develops a personality-oriented approach to learning. Parents, in turn, receive a clear understanding of the situation. For them, conditions are created for competent participation in the control and management of the learning process, the creation of an individual plan and the direction of development for the child. Only if there is information about the zones of stable success and problem areas, working to eliminate difficulties and improve skills, can significantly improve the quality of personal results. With a simple calculation of assessments, one can not objectively analyze the situation and implement adequate management of the process.

Innovations

Since the 2012/2013 school year, parents are using the unique online information service for Moscow and the whole country about the results of the child's participation in independent external diagnostics. At the same time, adults will be able to see not only the indicators themselves, but also the direction of the events. In addition, parents have access to a map of the studied or undeveloped controlled elements of education. They are also provided with recommendations and all explanations regarding external diagnostics of the quality of the pedagogical process. If these indicators are not available in your account, this means that the institution does not participate in external diagnostics.

Features of personal pages of users

The instruments present in the parents' offices are aimed at establishing the interaction between the school and the family. Today, despite the rather high level of development of mobile technologies, communication between the educational institution and parents can not always be considered productive, convenient and accessible. The main reason for this situation is the employment of adults. Parents often have an unnormalized day, frequent meetings, business trips, negotiations and other official moments. The information base allows the school and the family to interact in real time, without violating the leisure schedule or the work of adults. In the personal cabinet there is a service that allows parents to see and schedule their participation in those or other events related to the educational process or extra-curricular activities.

Electronic Portfolio

It allows you to take into account individual educational needs for each student. In this case, each parent can participate in the creation of his child's portfolio. Adults, therefore, not only see it, but can fill it. Such participation of the family makes it possible to increase the competitiveness of the child. The electronic portfolio shows:

1. All the abilities of the child.
2. The dynamics of its development.
3. Specific successes.

This tool allows you to adjust the educational process, in a timely manner, provide targeted support to the student. Parents, in turn, monitor the results, determine the quality of education. It is important that the range of achievements of the child can be unusually wide. It is sometimes impossible to collect all the student's achievements on paper.

Register of education quality of Tula region

The database provides for the possibility to manage multi-disciplinary educational institutions that have several buildings, a large children's and pedagogical staff, and various resources. Portal www. Tula.mcko.ru provides:

1. Internal independent audit of the educational institution.
2. Unloading results, analytical models and saving parameters.
3. Fixation of the content and the course of the educational process.
4. Accounting pedagogical activity.
5. Fixation of professional achievements of teachers.
6. Taking into account the personal achievements of children in mastering general educational programs at all levels.
7. Creation of multi-module, analytical and statistical reporting for different users.
8. Interaction between subjects.

In the system, among other things, there are electronic diaries of teachers and students.

Transparency and clarity of analysis

The results of the assessment of the quality of education are presented as:

1. Forms with verification indicators. They contain information for each child and the entire class as a whole.
2. A detailed map of pupils' learning of the tested components of the content of education, meta-subject and subject skills.
3. Dynamics of educational achievements and individual development of children.
4. Analytical materials, formed in accordance with the results of diagnostics of the educational institution. They allow you to compare the data of a particular institution with the average for the city or county.
5. Recommendations for improvement, according to a factor analysis of the information received on the educational process.

Conclusion

Considering the information given above, the importance of introducing a register in the regions of the country becomes unquestionable. The information and analytical database allows all interested users to see the results of the teaching staff of the educational institution. At the same time, a three-dimensional, integrated picture is formed, which is directly dependent on the achievements of each child individually. The register allows to take into account all pupils and students. The information and analytical base is formed on the basis of continuity and consideration of personal dynamics, the targeting of the approaches used. For example, an electronic portfolio is created from three years. It can be replenished up to the age of 18 years.
