Sažetak
Over the last couple of years, a comprehensive education reform, prompted to a large extent by an intensive development of information and communication technologies, has been implemented in the Republic of Croatia. Within this framework, primary schools have begun to apply the Croatian National Education Standard, i.e., a set of standards regulating education with an aim to improve it and adjust it to the requirements and needs of the modern society. The National Curriculum (guidelines) for secondary schools that will follow the principles and methodology of the Croatian National Education Standard for primary schools are planned to be completed by the end of 2010. The school reform is closely connected to the implementation of the Program e-Education, as one of the basic projects initiated as a part of the introduction of information technology into Croatian society. Its implementation has created the conditions for creation of information systems in education based on digital communications technology. Efforts to improve school information system by notifying teachers, pupils, and parents by SMS messages or alternatively by e-mail, i.e., the web, became concrete at the beginning of 2006 when Croatian schools started using SMS school informing service system, called SMS Informativka. After reviewing the state of the Croatian education and the most important achievements of past reforms, this paper has analyzed the process of developing a modern school information system considering its advantages but also problems associated with its implementation.
