Getting started
Student handbook
Student self-service: dashboard, homework, fees, library, exams, live transport, magic link, and PWA.
Getting started guide for day and boarding schools.
Last updated August 29, 2026
The student portal is mostly read-only, with four places you actually do something: submit homework, reserve a library book, apply for leave, and check what you owe. Everything else - attendance, marks, syllabus, exam documents - is a view of what staff have published, so anything missing there is usually waiting on a teacher rather than broken.
Sign in and home screen
- /signin → Student tab → /student-dashboard (password or magic-link email).
- Read school notices on the dashboard feed.
- Use /profile to change password when must-change-password is required (common after enrollment).
- Optional: Add to Home Screen / Install - Schoolyi can run as a PWA; /offline appears if the network drops.
Tasks you perform (not just view)
| Task | Path | Steps |
|---|---|---|
| Submit homework | /assignments | Open assignment → upload file or text → Submit before due date |
| Request library book | /my-library | Search → Reserve → collect when librarian issues |
| Apply for leave | /student-leave | Submit dates → wait for class teacher approval |
| Check / pay fees | /fees/me | View balance and history; open pay-online when the school enables it |
| Download hall ticket | /my-exams | Needs the exam session publish date to have passed and the paper to be published |
| Track bus | /my-transport | See route, stop, and live status when the driver has started duty |
View-only modules
- /my-attendance - your attendance record; you cannot edit marks.
- /my-grades - published assessments and report cards only (drafts stay private).
- /my-syllabus - subject curriculum for your class.
- /my-class - classmates and class teacher contact context.
- /parent/… paths are for guardians - use Student tab routes listed above.
