What's inside
Everything a school office does, in one place
Each part works on its own and shares data with the rest, so a student entered once shows up in attendance, fees, exams and the parent app.
Applications to enrolment
Applications, entrance tests, approvals and bulk enrolment. Siblings share one guardian record.
Daily register
Mark a section in seconds. Holidays and weekly offs are skipped automatically.
Challans and receipts
Monthly challans, discounts, part payments and an overdue list your accountant can trust.
Marks and report cards
Grade scales, positions per section and printable report cards.
Periods and covers
Build the weekly timetable, catch teacher clashes, and assign a cover when a teacher is absent.
HR and leave
Staff records, staff attendance and leave requests with approval.
Salaries and payslips
Allowances, PF, EOBI and tax, with deductions for absences calculated for you.
Parents stay informed
Absence alerts, fee reminders and announcements by app, email or a WhatsApp button.

Challans, discounts and payments
Generate a month of challans for the whole school in one go. Sibling and other discounts are applied, part payments are recorded, and the overdue list stays accurate.
- Monthly and one-time charges
- Cash, bank transfer and cheque receipts
- Paid, part paid and overdue at a glance
The daily register in a minute
Pick a section and mark the day. Weekends and holidays such as Iqbal Day are closed automatically, so nobody marks a day the school was shut.

- Teachers can mark from the phone, even offline

Marks to report cards
Enter marks per subject, and report cards are worked out with totals, grades and the position in the section, ready to print or share.
- Your own grade scale
- Rank in section
- Teacher remarks
Timetable and covers
Build the weekly timetable section by section. Clashes for teachers and rooms are refused, and when a teacher is on leave the periods that need cover are listed for you.
- Bell schedules per campus
- Teacher and room views
- Covers from approved leave
Salaries and payslips
Allowances, provident fund, EOBI and tax come from each salary structure, and absences are deducted from staff attendance.

- Teachers see today's periods, including covers for absent colleagues.
