URMANT is a subscription system for managing the in-school process of writing UCAS references for students. It is designed for use by office staff, subject teachers, mentors/UCAS reference writers and UCAS Co-Ordinators/Head of Sixth Forms.

Subject teachers are able to enter subject references for students, this makes that information available to the person responsible for writing the final UCAS reference (or personal reference, in the case of students not applying to university). Along with their reference, the system also stores (and can import from your own systems) students achieved and predicted grades in their subjects, to provide as much relevant information as possible to the person who writes the final reference.
References are stored in a central database, accessible via a web interface that allows staff to access the system from within school, at home, or indeed at any location with an internet connection. Once in the system; the references are securely stored, accessible by other staff members, and automatically archived each year, to allow staff to recall previous year's data in the case of providing professional references for ex-students. In addition to this, URMANT provides easy overview screens, allowing relevant staff to access information such as what students have submitted their UCAS applications, what subject references have not yet been written, and what students have not yet had a UCAS reference written for them. |
