Free productivity app
School Management System is a free productivity app by HQ Devs. This app offers some features similar to myJDW and Trello, but it’s geared towards school management, as the name implies. Unlike similar apps, it’s not meant to be used for a team; rather, it’s a personal app with a biometric login option.
With this app, you can manage different information about both students and staff, divide students into classes, send messages, and much more. In fact, you can control many aspects that make a school run by just tapping on your phone and reviewing info or updating it.
The amount of data you can input into School Management System is nothing short of spectacular. When it comes to students, you can create a class list, mark attendance, check the attendance history, and even mark tests.
Raw data of your students
Each student has their own file, just like in physical school offices, and you can edit them on the fly. You can even check which students are defaulting on their payments and send them reminders or generate vouchers.
Manage your staff
The other half of School Management System deals with the staff. Here you can also check the attendance, view and edit the staff details and perform many of the tasks of the students’ section.
In addition, you can create assignments for them, such as lectures, check ID cards, and more. Importantly, data can be exported, so it’s not only usable with this app and on your phone.
A solid entry
School Management System doesn’t break any new ground but it’s a great way to overview things when you’re on the go. It offers a comprehensive package of features that any school manager will find handy, and it’s straightforward to use.
The only thing it’s missing is more interactivity with your peers, leaving messaging aside. Sure, you can export and import data, but this is tedious, especially when it comes to schools, where new things happen every day. An option to collaborate between users would be great, but it’s not there. Still, it’s a good way to keep things under control.
