The development of technology is fast, people now a day rely on technology
because it makes our work become easy. Technology provides the benefit to improve our
work from good to best. One of common technology we use is the computer were we can
use it in our study. We can also use computer in enrolling. This computerized enrollment
system will help not just only the user but the student as well to save time and effort
when it comes to enrolling process.
1.1 Background of the Study
The Little Angels Learning Schools starts on 2004 with Pre-school to Grade 1. In
2005 the school recognized by Department of Education with Pre-school. After 3 years
the school grows and have their nursery to grade 3 because some of the students who is
studied there before, requested to have a higher level of grade school. After 3 years they
finally have their Pre-School to Elementary. The planned to have a high school but some
of their alumni wants to study in a big school. Year 2018 they have their grade 7 but now,
year 2019 they only have Pre-School to Elementary since the number of students who
enrolled in high school is little. Since then they only use traditional manual enrollment
process. The number of students in this year(2019) is ninety six(96) with only 1 section
for each year level(pre-school, kinder, gradeschool).
1.2 Overview of the Current State of the Technology
The Little Angels Learning Schools is using a manual enrollment system. The
enrollment period is first, the school admin will give an entrance exam for the enrollees.
Once they passed the entrance exam, the enrollees will give Baptismal, Birth certificate
Computerized Enrollment System for Little Angels Learning School 1-1
and 2x2 pictures for Pre-school and for Kinder to Grade school the requirements are
Baptismal, Birth Certificate, Good Moral, Card and 2x2 Picture. After that, the School
admin will give a registration form to fill up by the enrollee. After the registration form
filled up, the school admin will discuss about the payments of the tuition fees. There are
two copies for payments, the student’s copy and the administration copy. The registration
form and administration copy filled up by the students, the school admin will put it into
201 file, which is the file cabinet. The owner of the school is the one who manages the
whole process of manual enrollment system together with her assistant. After the
enrollment period, the owner of the school will retrieve the records of the students from a
file cabinet for writing the class list on paper.
1.3 Statement of the Problem
1.3.1 General Problem
How to develop a computerized enrollment system to improve the current
enrolling system of Little Angels Learning School to be time efficient and effort
efficient
1.3.2 Specific Problem
Retrieving data of student consumes a lot of time
Manual searching for student records in file cabinet full of
documents consumes a lot of time and effort
Difficulty in making class list
Computerized Enrollment System for Little Angels Learning School 1-2
The class list preparing in paper and counting of student is
tedious task and time consuming.
Redundancy of typing information
Writing the same information by the enrollee in registration
and two copies of payment consumes time for the student.
Monitoring of student account encounters delay
Creating another record for the student who lost their
records getting slower in updating and checking of student
records. Retrieving records consumes a lot of time.
1.4 Objective of the Study
1.4.1 General Objective
To develop computerized enrollment system to improve the current
enrolling system of the school to be time efficient and effort efficient
1.4.2 Specific Objective
To develop a computerized enrollment system that will easily store
and retrieve data.
To develop a computerized enrollment system that will
automatically come out the information of the students from
registration to student list and class list.
Computerized Enrollment System for Little Angels Learning School 1-3
To develop a computerized enrollment system that will reduce the
use of paper.
To develop a computerized enrollment system that can check and
update the record of the student with installment base payment.
1.5.1 Scope
Log-in
Security
Home Module
Contain the vision and mission of the school and information about
the school.
Registration Module
Contain the process of registration of students or transferee in the
school.

Computerized Enrollment System for Little Angels Learning School 1-4
Admin Module
Contain the process of adding, deleting and updating for new or
old users.
1.5.2 Limitation
Student has no access to the system, only the staff of the school.
There is no online access.
It can only record cash payments and cannot pay through credit cards.
1.6 Methodology of the Study
In this study, the software development life cycle will be the formal
method to be used. The following contains the specific approaches that may be employed
by the proponents in arriving at the realization of a solution to the problem.

Figure 1 Waterfall model with Royce’s iterative feedback
When referring to the waterfall model in this article, I shall mean Royce's modified
version of Benington's cascade model. One aspect of the waterfall model is its
requirement for documentation . Royce suggested that at least six distinct types of
document be produced: 1) Requirements document during the requirements stage. 2)
Preliminary design specification during the preliminary design stage. 3) Interface design
specification during the design stage. 4) Final design specification that is actively revised
and updated over each visit of the design stage; this is further updated during the
development and validation stages. 5) Test plan during the design stage; this is later
Computerized Enrollment System for Little Angels Learning School 1-6
updated with test results during the validation or testing stage. 6) Operations manual or
instructions during the deployment stage. Quality assurance is built into the waterfall
model by splitting each stage in two parts: one part performs the work as the stage's name
suggests and the other validates or verifies it. For instance, the design stage incorporates
verification (to assess whether it is fit for purpose), the development stage has unit and
integration testing, and the validation stage contains system testing as its part and parcel.
