Major Features of A School Management Software

Previously, schools and other educational institutions used to handle the records manually. At that time, to search for a crucial piece of information, one would have to shuffle up big filing cabinets. This problem is eliminated by school management software that consists of various modules, which allows you to easily manage everything from students and staff information, fees, payroll, attendance, holidays, events, addresses, timings and so on. There is no fear of theft of information or information getting lost as the information is stored on a secured web server.

School software offers several benefits and the major benefit is that you don't have to shuffle up big filing cabinets to search for a single piece of information. The common features offered by a school management software are:

Fee Management - The job of fee management is one of the most difficult tasks for school administrators. School software simplifies this job to a great extent as it automates every single task involved from calculation of fees, storing fee records, generation of receipts and sends SMS to parents of students who have not submitted their fees.

Academics Management – Managing student information is also one of the critical issues in schools. There are three to four sections for every single class and every class consists of a minimum of 40 students and it is quite difficult to manage information of every single student using the conventional paper-copy method. School software eliminates this problem and makes it easy to manage information of every student in a secured way.

Fleet Management – This module manages the entire transportation operations of a school. In this module all the information like vehicles' routing information, transportation fees and others is maintained.

Library Management – This module in the school software automates the entire library management process and offers advanced search options like “Book Search”. There is no need to manually keep a record of books issued, returned and arrived as the software keeps a record of all that.

Staff Management – There is a large number of teaching and non-teaching staff in every school. The staff management module stores critical information related to staff such as personal details, salaries and others.
