Learner Unit Record Information and Tracking System Data
Abstract
The Department of Education's South African School Administration and Management System, SA-SAMS, is made available to all schools free of charge for uploading data to the Learner Unit Record Information and Tracking System, LURITS, and other education information management systems. LURITS includes unit-record data for each learner in South Africa, from Grade R through to Grade 12. The system also tracks each learner's movement from school to school. Individual educator records are also housed on LURITS. The LURITS system is dependent on receiving data from computerised school administration systems. Schools that do not have computerised school administration systems provide paper-based reports to the districts for uploading to LURITS. The dataset provided by DataFirst is the LURITS data, prepared as research-ready.
