Technically speaking there is a whole lot of difference between School ERP softwares and School Management Softwares but for purpose of functionality both names are used interchangeably. School Management Softwares provide separate user spaces pertaining to the type of user so that they can manage all the functions assigned to them. There is no trespassing others work areas and functions and even within users having same functions such as teachers – each teachers is insulated from each other so that nobody can willingly or non-willingly transgress the others data. All work assignments are via User Types which defines what all departments are accessible to the said user and what rights are available in each module. Except for the Management, who can view any area of the school in the software, rest all are restricted by the rights awarded to them.
Basic Access Roles in
School Management Softwares
Operating a school is a demanding responsibility, especially because teachers are charged with the life-changing task of passing on information to future generations. Using the advantages of digital technology can aid in the complex process of operating a school. Having school management software can be a game changer in this industry.
Teacher/ Staff: What do they do ? They have two functions – extrinsic wherein they teach, enter marks in the system, give homework, requisition materials for teaching, communicate with parents, etc and intrinsic wherein they report their progress to the management like filling in Lesson Plans, Teachers diary, class average, etc. and incase of staff like fee clerk/ manager who has to report collections, pendings, non-reporting cases, Id card generation, gate pass printing, maintaining visitor logs, etc. Therefore their portal access in Nascorp School Management Software has two faces. Whereas teachers, transport incharges, co-odinators, HODs have portal access as well as mobile app access, the staff working with large data like Fee incharges, Librarians, Inventory incharges, Infirmary Nurse etc have only portal access since they cannot comfortably work on mobile apps. All of them have a host of reporting tools which could be dynamic reports which could be created by the user, analytical reports where you can put conditions, graphical tools and ready made reports which are standard reports used generally by all schools.
Students/ Parents: In school management softwares, they are receivers of information from the school be it homeworks, communications, remarks, attendance, circulars, broadcasts, time table, calendar of events, report cards, fee reminders, etc. They have rights to communicate, request the assigned staff for any demands be it withdrawal of school bus, reservation of Library books, change of bus route, Tuition fee certificates and more. They too have been given an access through Portal as well as mobile apps on both iOS and Android. For parents the school management softwares are an easy way to keep in touch with the progress of your ward, know the feedback from teachers, be updated about the activities in school, pay fees without visiting the school, communicate with management and staff, post your grievances to the authorities.
Management / Administrators: School Management Softwares are an excellent tool for the management to keep a birds eye view of the activities in school as well as plan efficient strategies to improve the school functioning. The Management Dashboard provides a clear view of all the functional departments of school, starting with Admission Management wherein each enquiry posted by new parents is automatically replied to and a CRM in the module manages next course of action. The management is clearly able to see the enquiry versus registrations versus actual admissions in school. They can compare the current year admissions with previous years data and see whether they are improving or slipping. In Fee management they are able to see graphically, the current received versus pending or class wise pendings or the period for which the amounts are pending without the need to call Fee staff.
