What IT systems/databases do schools in Australia use?

I am moving to Australia in 2017 and I want to work in Education in the IT/Database side of things.

 

Does anyone know which School Information Systems are in use in Australia?

 

I believe in state schools each state has it's own system. I have found out that Queensland uses OneSchool. Does anyone know what is used in other states?

 

Does anyone know of any other systems that are used by the private schools?

 

Any info would be appreciated as I want to work in this field.

 

Thanks :)

Off the top of my head: Synergetic, TASS, OneSchool, iWise.

 

OneSchool is probably one of the most horrendous systems I have ever encountered in a school. It's functionality is appalling. I actually miss using SIMs in the UK..... I'm actually shocked that someone thought it'd be a good system to use in State Schools in QLD!!

Synergetic is ok. I know a few schools have moved away from TASS recently. Husband is a teacher and seems ok with iWise. Not sure what it's like from an Admin/Data point of view though.
