Leadership and coordinators use overview screens to monitor school health. The reports hub at /reports serves a categorized catalog; the Chart tab renders visuals via ReportVisualPanel and the chart registry. Committees formalize governance for examinations, admissions, and academic decisions.

|---|---|---|
| Dashboard | /dashboard | Role-aware KPI widgets - attendance, fees, admissions funnel, upcoming exams |
