Abstract:
The advancement of digital technology has transformed various sectors, including education,
where manual systems are gradually being replaced by automated solutions for increased
efficiency and accuracy. This project focuses on the development of a Student Marksheet
Management System for Saint Jean Baptiste College in Bangangté, a secondary school in
Cameroon. The primary goal is to streamline the process of marksheet management, which
includes the entry, calculation, storage, and retrieval of student academic records.
Currently, many secondary schools in Cameroon, including Saint Jean Baptiste College, rely
heavily on manual processes for handling students' marksheets. These traditional methods are
prone to errors, time-consuming, and often lead to delays in report generation. As the student
population grows, the challenges in managing large volumes of academic data manually also
increase. This system is intended to solve these problems by offering a centralized, automated
platform that will improve the accuracy, speed, and security of managing student marksheets.
The system will be developed using a modular approach, with specific roles and permissions
assigned to different users. Form teachers will have the responsibility of inputting and
managing student marks, while the principal will oversee the marksheet approval process.
The system will also incorporate data security measures to protect sensitive student
information and provide backup functionalities to prevent data loss.
By automating the marksheet management process, this system will enhance the overall
efficiency of academic operations at Saint Jean Baptiste College. It is expected to minimize
human errors, reduce the administrative workload, and ultimately lead to better academic
performance tracking. This project serves as a step towards modernizing education in
Cameroon, making student evaluation more efficient and reliable.
