Student information system (SIS)
The authoritative register of students, classes, guardians, and enrollments that other school modules depend on.
An SIS is the hub record for each child: demographics, class placement, sibling links, guardian contacts, and promotion history.
When admissions accepts an offer, a strong SIS creates or updates the student profile automatically so fees, timetable, and exams never reference stale spreadsheets.
