Using existing Microsoft products already licensed and used in primary and secondary schools, the Microsoft Platform for Education Analytics (MPEA) is an integrated technology architecture connecting all people across primary and secondary schools with the information they need to direct their actions in a manner consistent with the goals and priorities of the educational institution.
