How it works

Follow the handoffs, not just the feature list

A clear sequence makes ownership, exceptions, and the next system action visible.

  1. 01

    Model access

    Map school responsibilities to role permissions before inviting staff.

  2. 02

    Configure

    Set school identity, academic structure, notifications, grading, and operational defaults.

  3. 03

    Test

    Use representative staff and family accounts to verify route visibility and handoffs.

  4. 04

    Govern

    Review activity, deactivate leavers, export evidence, and maintain deployment runbooks.

Product truth

What to verify before rollout

Good school software copy should answer who owns the work, what the handoff produces, and which parts still depend on deployment decisions.

Deep dive

Decisions, handoffs, and boundaries

Use these details to turn a product page into an implementation conversation.

Go-live gate

A successful sign-in does not prove a rollout is safe; test least-privilege access, publishing, email, backups, and recovery.

AI boundary

AI help and integrations should be enabled with clear role, data, and infrastructure decisions.

Deployment checklist

Record the server owner, scheduled jobs, email and payment settings, backup arrangement, recovery owner, and role-review date before declaring administration ready.

Evidence layer

Read the supporting product and implementation material before making a capability claim.

Questions, answered

Straightforward answers for visitors evaluating the product.

Can roles be customised?+

The platform uses role-based access; map local job titles to the available permission model during setup.

Record the responsible administrator and verify the control in the target deployment before production data is loaded. Keep the evidence with the school’s procurement or access-review record.

Is enterprise SSO included?+

No. Sign-in uses credentials and parent or student magic links; schools requiring SSO or MFA should treat those requirements as unmet.

Treat that boundary as an explicit procurement or deployment decision. Document the responsible owner and any supporting process before rollout.
