making school software in Pune: practical steps on one student record and one academic calendar, then a Schoolyi demo with your awkward case.

making school software in Pune
Teams that “make school software” usually underestimate the holiday master, mid-year joiners, two-guardian contacts, and publish gates.
A CRUD app for students is not a school system. The system is the handoff: applicant becomes roster row becomes fee account becomes attendance denominator. Pune still has to do this against Maharashtra SSC, CBSE, IB, ICSE. April academic year; monsoon weeks still need official working-day exceptions. Named facts: Maharashtra SSC, Hinjawadi, GST, PMPML.
INR tuition with GST on transport and activity heads. Named facts: Maharashtra SSC, Hinjawadi, GST, PMPML. Named owners still have to keep the holiday master, the roster, and the family view aligned in this place, because a brochure paragraph will not survive the first mid-year joiner or the first board week.
- Hard-coding Monday–Friday.
- One email field per family.
- Claiming a general ledger you did not build.
Model working days, not weekdays
Attendance percentages lie without an official exception calendar.

One person, many contacts
Two households, one child, separate logins. A father/mother pair of fields will not survive custody.
