Web Component

The web component of the platform consists of a web portal with content management. The portal uses an innovative synchronization technique to synchronize with the desktop component and provides students, parents, staff etc access to information from the platform via the web. This enables students' financial status, academic performance, attendance etc to be monitored online.

Furthermore, the synchronization technique enables the school to work with the platform offline whenever there is disruption in internet service and the system will automatically synchronize with the web portal whenever internet service is restored.

The web portal could also be customized to integrate into existing websites

The following web modules are available to provide additional functionalities

Classroom Chat

This allows members of each class to have live discussions online with each other and their teachers.

Online Payment

This module provides a secure online payment platform allowing parents to make payments from the comfort of their homes or offices and the school's financial records will be updated automatically (i.e. the student's account with the school is automatically updated and the transaction is posted to all necessary accounts books such as the cashbook etc). This eliminates the need to retrieve student online payment information and manually update the schools' records!

Online Admission Management

This module enables prospective students to pay and fill their admission forms online. The school can then process the application while the applicants track their admission status online.

Improved supervision and control

Student Manager centralizes all student and school information and their use making supervision and control very easy. For example, teachers have access to only the classes and subjects they teach while HODs can access all subjects under their departments. It is also a powerful means for enforcing standards.

Increased Efficiency and Productivity

Student Manager automates school management processes making them easier, faster and cost effective.

Personalized learning experience

The various analysis and reports on student performance give empirical measures of students' strengths and weaknesses making it easy to tailor the learning process to meet their specific needs.

World wide access

The web component provides controlled access to parents and students to info such as scores, financial status etc. It also facilitates online payments with live classroom discussions from anywhere in the world!

Robust, scalable and easy to use

The platform is self administrative with minimal hardware requirements and does not require advanced computer skills to manage or use. It is independent and is not built on already existing applications like Microsoft Access or Excel.

Ability to work offline

The desktop application works independently of the web portal. Therefore the school can work with the platform offline whenever there is disruption in internet service and synchronize with the web portal whenever internet service is restored. This greatly minimizes system downtime.

Structured and systematic implementation

The process of implementation of Student Manager follows best international software implementation practices with in-dept analysis, comprehensive staff training, seamless integration into the school's workflow and excellent technical support.

An evolving platform

Student Manager is continuously being improved to make it more adaptable to school growth and new technologies.
