edge integration with PaCT judgment data

edge integration with the Progress and Consistency Tool (PaCT) uploads student data to PaCT. Once your school has registered with PaCT, it will be possible to integrate edge with PaCT.

Process for setting up PaCT integration for assessment data with edge

Before beginning to set up for PaCT, ensure ENROL is up to date for your school, as once the MoE Service Desk sends the invitation, the PaCT automatically imports student data from ENROL. Once the PaCT set up process is complete, the nominated School PaCT Administrator will have rung the MoE Service Desk and requested them to enable login to PaCT.
