Until recent times, school staff used computers for checking their timetable, reading messages and taking attendance of class. By utilising the capabilities of the AGP, the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC), SQL and java applications we can now provide a significant amount of functionality for school staff on the optiPoint phones via the DSM or APM. However this application can be extended in future to include features like event calendar, contact details of students and staff,to broadcast news/alerts etc.
