FRIDAY 10 MARCH 2023: Blockchain at OLA

Abingdon-on-Thames, Oxfordshire – Our Lady’s Abingdon partners with Vizidox Solutions to implement Blockchain Technology.

Our Lady’s Abingdon, a leading independent school in Oxfordshire, has partnered with Vizidox Solutions Limited, a UKbased Blockchain technology company, to implement Blockchain Technology in their school records management system. Our Lady’s Abingdon, already well on their way to being a Microsoft Showcase School, is set to become one of the first schools in the UK to adopt this cutting-edge technology.

Blockchain technology provides a secure and tamper-proof way of recording and sharing data. By implementing Blockchain, Our Lady’s Abingdon will be able to streamline their records management system, making it more efficient, sustainable, and secure.

The use of Blockchain technology in schools offers many benefits, including:

  • Sustainability: Using Blockchain technology can significantly reduce paper usage and carbon footprint, making it an eco-friendly option for schools.
  • Safeguarding records: Blockchain provides a tamper-proof way of recording and sharing data, which enhances security and safeguards student records from unauthorised access or manipulation.
  • Ownership of credentials: Students will have access to their records over the Blockchain, allowing them to own their credentials forever. This will make it easier for students to share their academic records and transcripts with employers or other educational institutions when required.
  • Enhanced efficiency: Blockchain can automate and streamline administrative processes, which saves time and money, allowing staff to focus on core activities such as teaching and learning.

    By implementing Blockchain technology, Our Lady’s Abingdon is taking a bold step towards embracing innovation in education. The school is committed to providing its students with the best possible education and the use of Blockchain technology will enhance the school’s records management system, providing a more efficient, secure, and sustainable solution.
