Panorama Education provides a data analytics platform specifically designed for educational institutions, such as school districts and individual schools. The platform enables these institutions to collect and analyze various data related to student performance, including attendance, behavior, and grades. This analysis helps schools make informed decisions to better support their students. A distinctive feature of Panorama's platform is its emphasis on social-emotional learning (SEL), offering tools to measure students' SEL skills and understand their emotional well-being. Additionally, the platform includes tools for Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS), which assist schools in providing tailored support to students. Panorama operates on a business-to-business model, selling its services to educational institutions, and is recognized for its professionalism and responsiveness in the education sector.
