Day-school software misses the house
Boarding students live on campus - attendance at roll call differs from class attendance. House parents track evening study, permissions, and pastoral notes generic SIS products ignore.
Weekend leave requests route through house staff and guardians; paper forms get lost between dorm and front gate.
Boarding status on the student profile drives fee lines, leave rules, and who receives urgent notices.
Leave, exeat, and weekend logistics
Guardians approve leave online; house staff see approved lists before sign-out. Return check-in closes the loop for accountability.
Fixed exeat weekends and special closure days belong on the master calendar with automatic reminders.
International parents in distant time zones need async approval - not phone tags during their night.
Unified fees including boarding charges
Tuition, boarding, laundry, and activity levies appear on one statement. Day students on the same campus skip boarding line items automatically.
Mid-term boarder status changes adjust fee plans without manual credit notes.
Bursars reconcile online pay from families who never visit the physical office.
Pastoral notes and safeguarding
House staff log pastoral incidents with role-scoped visibility - not every teacher sees sensitive notes.
Medical and dietary flags from admissions follow the student to house dashboards.
Audit trails matter when safeguarding reviews ask who saw what when.
Academics still run on term calendars
Boarders sit the same exams and report cycles as day students. Timetable, gradebook, and exam sessions share one calendar.
Study hall periods and supervised prep blocks can tag on timetables separately from lessons.
Multi-timezone family portals
Guardians abroad check leave status, fee receipts, and published reports when local office hours do not overlap.
Multi-child logins link day and boarding siblings when families split placements.
Rollout with house parents first
Pilot leave workflows with one house before school-wide cutover. Import roster with boarding flags before fee billing.
Train house staff on mobile-friendly roll call; academic modules follow existing term calendar setup.
- Role-based access - teachers, finance, admissions, and families see scoped workspaces
- One academic calendar drives attendance, exams, fees, and leave
- Phased rollout: admissions, roster, and fees first - expand when teams are ready
