Independent sector diversity
Quintile-rated and fully independent schools run different fee realities - bursary, remission, and full-fee families on one campus need confidential finance workflows.
IGCSE and CAPS streams coexist in many groups; programme tags keep reporting accurate.
Three-term calendars align to national holiday patterns with school-specific closure days.
Term fees and bursary workflows
Termly billing with extras for sport, tours, and boarding itemized transparently.
Bursary adjustments stay finance-scoped - form tutors never see remission amounts.
Online pay grows among urban families; rural campuses still need solid counter receipt flows.
Working-day attendance
Homeroom marking on mobile with leave integration.
Summaries feed report cards and compliance exports without duplicate entry.
Payroll beside school finance
Staff records, leave, and payslip PDF integrate when bursar office also runs payroll.
Role scoping keeps teachers on gradebook while HR manages sensitive documents.
Exam publish gates
Families see results only after coordinator release - critical before WhatsApp screenshots spread early.
IGCSE session planning links to enrolled classes for seating lists.
