VISH Co., Ltd. (Location: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture; Representative Director: Hiroyuki Tabuchi) will begin offering a new "Scheduling Function" from May 11, 2026 (Monday), within its ICT system "Enshien System + Buscatch," provided for kindergartens, nursery schools, and certified childcare centers.
This function supports teachers' work by digitizing the aggregation of preferred interview dates from parents for individual interviews and other events, as well as the complex allocation tasks.
Background of the New Feature Release
Individual interviews are valuable opportunities for gardens and families to collaborate and exchange information to support children's growth.
However, we received many requests from teachers regarding the burden of scheduling individual interviews, such as "Aggregating preference forms for first-semester individual interviews takes a whole day..." and "Adjusting times to accommodate siblings is difficult...".
With the desire to alleviate even a small part of this burden for teachers, we are pleased to release the long-awaited "Scheduling Function."
Features of the Scheduling Function
1. "Automatic Listing" of Preferred Times for Zero Aggregation Work
Preferred times entered by parents via smartphone are immediately reflected on the administration screen and displayed in a list. This eliminates the need for collecting paper forms or re-entering data into Excel, and allows for easy identification of unsubmitted parents.
2. Smart "Adjustment and Confirmation" Work on Screen
From overlapping preferences, it is easy to decide who to assign to which slot with just a mouse click. Overlapping areas are visible at a glance, enabling smooth adjustments.
3. "Reservation Blocking" for Teacher's Convenience
Times when interviews cannot be held, such as for meetings or events, can be pre-set as "unavailable for reservation." Parents can then only select from available time slots, preventing the hassle of re-adjustments later.
4. Smooth Confirmation Communication via Message Delivery
Notifications of confirmed schedules and guidance on what to bring on the day can be sent to parents from the system. Sending timely guidance ensures smooth communication with parents.
Usage Image
Teachers can use the function in 3 steps from the "Scheduling" menu on the administration screen.
Regarding Fees
This function is provided as a basic feature, so those who have a contract for "Enshien System + Buscatch" can use it without additional charges.
About Enshien System + Buscatch
Since its service launch in 2010, "Enshien System + Buscatch" has been adopted by kindergartens, nursery schools, and certified childcare centers nationwide, supporting the ICT integration of communication and management tasks connecting institutions and parents.
In December 2025, it will celebrate its 15th anniversary, having been used by many institutions for a long time.
Our company is committed to continuous functional improvement and enhanced usability based on daily feedback from the field.
Recently, we have implemented updates directly linked to improving operational efficiency and convenience, including a design refresh for the administration screen and parent app, strengthening extracurricular class management functions, expanding child search functions, and in February 2026, integrating generative AI into the guidance record creation function.
Moving forward, we will continue to provide systems that contribute to reducing the workload of teachers and staff and creating time to engage with each child, by combining our accumulated understanding of the field with new technologies.
Our goal is to realize educational and childcare environments where "ease" and "smiles" are born through ICT.
