Sstarts was installed in Taminmin High School (NT) in February 2001.

In May/June 2001, nine NSW schools using a system which was no longer supported were converted to Sstarts and 3 new schools were installed.

The developer, Murray Schliebs, has twenty-one years experience in the development of School Administration software while working for the Northern Territory Department of Education and later as an independent developer.

Support for the system is provided by Murray via phone, email and periodic visits.

Unlike many other systems, there is no additional software other than Office 97 or 2000 required.

There is also no “up front” purchase price. The annual fee covers the license, email and “five minute” phone support.

The system is constantly being improved as a result of feedback from the current users.
