Attendance
Know who is missing, every morning.
Registers marked by class each day, half-days included, and every child's attendance in the parent app.
School administration, in one place.
Admissions, students, attendance, fees, communication, staff, library, transport and reporting, each reading the same record. The office types a detail once, and one question reaches across all of it.
A school week, without the firefighting.
Six moments every school office knows. How each is handled today, and what iScuela has already done.

Something stops working.
Someone on the call who can see your screen.
The office, module by module.
Everything the school office uses.
Fees and receipts
Every fee due, every payment on record.
Paid from a phone or at the counter, receipted automatically, and reported by payment mode, day by day.
Admissions
From application to first day, in one pipeline.
Every document checked, nothing lost between a spreadsheet and an inbox.
Timetable
A timetable built from the rules you already have.
Conflict-free, and regenerated when a teacher leaves.
Assessment and report cards
From results entered to report cards published.
Results entered once, checked for gaps, and published to families.
The rest of the office.
- Students
Personal and guardian details, attendance and timetable on one profile, with who sees what set by role.
- Homework
Set for a class and seen at home in the parent app.
- Communication
Say it once, to the right classes, pushed to the parent app.
- Parent app
iOS and Android, with fee payments, notices, attendance and report cards.
- Staff management
Staff records, leave and attendance, in the same system as the students'.
- Library
Catalogue, loans and fines, with fines added to the family's fee balance.
- Transport
Routes, stops and allocations, with transport fees in the same fee cycle.
- Gate pass
Collection checked against the guardian on record.
- Reports and analytics
About forty reports built in, a builder for your own student reports, and Ask Me Anything for the rest.
Entered once. Used everywhere after.
Each module reads the record the one before it wrote. Nobody in the office types the same detail twice.
AdmissionsStudents
An accepted applicant becomes a student record, without re-keying.

Switching is our work, not the office's.
We move your records, set the platform up for your school and train the people who use it. Live in weeks, not terms.

Training for every role
The office, admissions, finance, the library, transport and the gate, each on the screens they will use.
Where your students' data sits.
We would rather tell you where we are than claim where we are not.
iScuela is hosted on ISO 27001-certified AWS infrastructure with UK data residency. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit. A data processing agreement is available for every school. We hold our own ISO 27001 certification.
Read Trust and securityCan it handle a complicated fee structure?
Yes. Fee heads, cycles and due dates are set per year group, with concession categories and fines on your own rules. Transport fees and library fines land in the same register, so each family has one balance.
What about parents who do not use apps?
The office counter does not go away. Fees can be taken at the counter and a receipt issued the same way. The app removes the queue for the parents who would rather not stand in it.
Can we issue certificates and ID cards from it?
Yes. Transfer certificates, proof-of-enrolment letters and fee certificates are generated from the student record, numbered and logged. ID cards are designed once and printed in batches from the same data.
Does everyone in the office see everything?
No. Each member of staff has their own login, and what they can see and change is set by their role. The library, the finance desk and the admissions team work from the same record without sharing one view of it.
How long does switching take?
Weeks, not terms. We migrate your data from your current system or from spreadsheets, configure the platform to your school, and train every role before you go live.
What does it cost?
It depends on your curriculum and the size of your school. Book a demo or contact us and we will put together a quote for your school.
