Everything included, before you add a single package
Every Schoolise subscription starts here. The Core Platform is the foundation every organisation runs on — organisation structure, people, teaching, timetable, attendance, portals and the essentials for day-to-day operation. Packages build on top of this, they don’t replace it.
Organisation Management
The structural foundation — sites, buildings, academic years, terms and departments, configured to match how your organisation actually runs.
- One place to configure structure, whether you’re a single site or several
- Academic years and terms that every other module reads from
- Education system presets, so terms and grading fit your context
Organisation setup
People
A single directory for everyone connected to your organisation — students, parents and guardians, staff, and other contacts — with household relationships kept accurate.
- One profile per person, not a separate list in every module
- Family and household relationships kept accurate
- Documents and custom fields attached to the right profile
Directory
| Name | Role | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Amelia Foster | Student — Year 8 | Active |
| David Foster | Guardian | Active |
| Mr. Adeyemi | Staff — Teacher | Active |
Teaching
Define what you teach and who teaches it — courses, classes, teaching groups and teacher allocation, including lead and additional teachers.
- Class capacities and group membership managed in one place
- Lead and additional teachers allocated per teaching group
- Courses linked directly to year levels
Teaching allocation
| Teaching group | Lead teacher | Students |
|---|---|---|
| Year 8 Maths — Set 2 | Mr. Adeyemi | 24 |
| Year 10 English | Ms. Kowalski | 28 |
Timetable
Recurring lessons and one-off events, with automatic conflict detection for rooms, teachers and students.
- Conflict detection built in, not a manual check
- Room capacity alerts before they become a problem
- Online lesson locations scheduled the same way as physical rooms
This week
Lessons
A record of what was actually taught, linked directly to the timetable slot and the attendance register for that lesson.
- Teaching notes and topics covered, recorded against the right lesson
- Learning objectives visible to anyone reviewing later
- A natural link into Lesson Planning, once you add it
Lesson record
Attendance
Registers, absence reasons and late arrivals, feeding directly into parent notifications and reporting.
- Registers that take seconds, not minutes, to complete
- Absence reasons and late arrivals recorded consistently
- Parent notifications sent automatically, where enabled
Today’s attendance
Users & Permissions
Custom access roles and organisation-level security, so staff, parents and students each see only what’s relevant to them.
- Role-based access down to named permissions
- Restricted views for sensitive areas of the platform
- An audit trail of who accessed what, and when
Access roles
| Role | Access level |
|---|---|
| Head Teacher | Full access |
| Class Teacher | Restricted |
Parent Portal
Timetables, attendance, progress, reports, messages and files — all in one place a parent can check without contacting the office.
- One login for everything relevant to their child
- Fewer routine questions landing in the school office
- Configurable sections, so you control what’s visible
Parent view
Student Portal
Classes, timetable, resources and feedback, in a view built for students rather than staff.
- One place for students to check what’s next
- Homework and resources attached to the right lesson
- Feedback visible as soon as it’s ready
Student view
Organisation Health
A running check of your setup — missing data, scheduling conflicts, unallocated teachers — surfaced before they become a problem on the day.
- Gaps surfaced proactively, not discovered on the day
- One health view instead of checking each module separately
- Guided fixes for common setup issues
Health check
Guided Onboarding
A setup checklist walks every new organisation through configuration, so nothing important gets missed on the way to launch — see how the full implementation process works.
Optional packages, built on the same foundation
Every package below shares the same core data — add only what your organisation needs.
