One team, one MIS

Integris and Arbor have been working together as one team for the past two years. We’ve used that time to build a deeper understanding of what primary schools are looking for in an MIS, both by speaking with 100s of customers, and by training our teams to work across both MIS systems.

Because we can see that primary schools increasingly prefer Arbor, and because it offers features we know many Integris schools want, we’ve decided to discontinue Integris in February 2026. Over the next 12 months, you can switch to Arbor at no extra cost, before Integris is discontinued.

 

How to move to Arbor

Make the move to Arbor with these three simple steps

60-minute Introduction to Arbor MIS

  • Clubs and trips dashboard

Step 3

Agree your migration date with us

Sign your Arbor contract to secure your preferred migration slot 

Integris will be discontinued in February 2026, so there's plenty of time to make the switch. We'd recommend booking your slot early to guarantee you get the date that suits you best.

"It helps you spot areas of concern instantly, especially with assessments & behaviour. You can dig deeper into your data without too much effort - it's there at your fingertips!"

"When we looked at what we currently bought into, there was almost £19,000 worth of additional subscriptions and costs that we could effectively eliminate by moving to Arbor"

Kirsten Beaven. School Business Manager at Vaughan Primary School

"We used to have a system for our parents’ evenings, parents app, payments for things like uniform sales, another app for dinner money, clubs and trips. That’s all on Arbor now.

Our information is in one place and it saves us money as well! Parents like it too - Arbor is very parent-friendly, we've had really good feedback."

Lucia Page, School Business Manager at Great Chart Primary School
