First time evaluating daily meals of 100 schools through software

(NLDO) - Through the boarding meal management software, students and parents at 100 schools in Thu Duc City can rate and comment on meals every day.

The Department of Education and Training of Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City has just deployed a software to manage boarding meals to 100 primary and secondary schools in the area. With this software, students and parents can monitor, score, and give feedback on boarding meals every day.

The software was implemented by the Center for Information and Educational Programs - Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training in 6 months from the "order" of the Department of Education and Training of Thu Duc City to enhance digital transformation and application of information technology in education and training; creating conditions for parents to participate in monitoring and evaluating meals.

Mr. Nguyen Thai Vinh Nguyen, Head of the Department of Education and Training of Thu Duc City, said that the "Boarding Meal Management" software deployed in schools is completely free; parents and students do not have to pay any fees to use it.

Through the boarding meal management software, students and parents at 100 schools in Thu Dau Mot City can score and give feedback on their daily boarding meals.

According to Mr. Nguyen, a year ago, to monitor and manage boarding meals at schools, the Department of Education and Training required that every day, schools take pictures of meals and meals and send them to the department's leaders; along with reports according to the prescribed forms of the education and health sectors...

With "Boarding Meal Management", educational institutions no longer have to report manually but operate directly on the software. Meal suppliers also have a basis for transparency in related matters.

Mr. Nguyen believes that managing meals at boarding schools is very important, not only ensuring food safety but also creating conditions for parents and students to evaluate and give feedback every day. Through these evaluations, school leaders can make timely and appropriate adjustments.

Mr. Vo Thien Cang, Director of the Center for Information and Educational Programs, Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training, recognized that managing boarding meals is an important task for schools. The software "Boarding Meal Management" helps solve this problem by providing transparent information about the menu and meal quality, allowing managers, parents, and students to evaluate meals.

With the software's functions - such as meal evaluation, reporting, improving the quality of boarding meals..., managers can monitor menus by day, week, month; monitor quick reports or quarterly. The software also has features for parents and students to evaluate and comment on meals by day, week or month. "Parents and students just need to scan the QR code, select the evaluation section, and contribute opinions" - Mr. Cang said.

Students and parents can rate, evaluate, and comment on daily meals.

According to leaders of many educational institutions in Thu Duc City, the current boarding meals at schools are of special concern. The "Boarding Meal Management" software brings many benefits. However, some opinions are concerned that if parents evaluate only through uploaded images, is it accurate? Meanwhile, some opinions suggest that it is necessary to calculate the number of calories in each meal to meet the nutritional requirements of students.

Ms. Do Thi Tu, Principal of Tu Duc Primary School - the pilot implementation unit, said that at the beginning of the implementation, the school was very hesitant to post pictures of meals, because the boarding meals were a sensitive issue. After the implementation period, the management of boarding meals has become much easier. This is also an information channel for the school to listen to more opinions from parents and students.
