Computerised Cúntas Míosúil (Version 1.1)


Posted on October 5th, by admin in News. 20 comments

Computerised Cúntas Míosúil version 1.1

Are you sick of all that paperwork when it comes to Cúntas Míosúil time?  Anseo.net has created a computerised Cúntas Míosúil and you can download it for free.  It is written using Microsoft Excel so you’ll need MS Office or Open Office to run it.  It’s been designed to be as easy as possible to use.  On the cover page, simply type in your details then click on the individual tabs for each subject to fill them in.

The only techie thing that I couldn’t get around was typing in multiple lines of text.  If you need to move on to a new line, you have to hold down the “Alt” key and press the “Enter” Button.  When you’ve typed in all your subjects, click on the appropriate month and your Cúntas Míosúil is ready for printing!  Simple.

Note: This computerised Cúntas Míosúil has been developed to include the Ethics/Religion curricula.  It is set at the Educate Together Ethics curriculum by default.  You can change this by double-clicking on the appropriate tab.

This new version corrects a small error where teachers could not change the name of the school.

    Sorry you can’t open the file. Do you have Microsoft Excel or Open Office installed on your computer? If not, there’s your problem. The program was written on an Excel worksheet and thus is only compatible with the above programs.

    A chara,
    We are having difficulty printing the cuntas miosúil – all the text doesn’t come out. Have tried landscape, making boxes bigger but no luck. Any other ideas?
    Go raibh maith agat,

    Would you email this to your principal every month? How would it work in a school? Sorry relatively new to teaching, and my school are looking for a new way of doing the cuintas miosuil as not to use too much paper.

    • Simon

      Yes, my staff email their cúntas míosúil to me and I file it. It saves a load of paper and time. I think your principal would have to be on board though.

    Hi, trying to use this very helpful tool but it is password protected. Could you let me know what the password is?

    • Simon

      Hmm…it shouldn’t be password protected. Try and download it again and see what happens.

    am wondering if there is enough info being recorded. Inspectors seem to want different things

    • Simon

      You’re right. Different inspectors want different things – however, I think this form is fairly adaptable to any situation.

      Hi Ed

      You can unlock the spreadsheet depending on the program you’re using, if it is locked. I think it’s in the Tools menu in MS Excel.

    Dia duit Simon,

    How do you unprotect the cuntas míosúil spreadsheet? It is read-only.
    I have MS Excel installed and checked file permissions.

    Go raibh míle,

      That’s fixed now so you are now able to edit the spreadsheet.  I wrote this spreadsheet in an older version of Excel so hopefully this version should work nicely in the newer versions of the program.  Please feel free to let people know about this resource.

    Brilliant! Reminds me of the school stats form!
