In most schools the timetable lives in one file, lesson plans in a notebook, marks in Excel and report cards in Word. None of them talk to each other, so teachers and coordinators carry the same information from one place to the next, every term.
-
The same marks, typed three times
Marks go into a paper register, then an Excel sheet, then the report card. One wrong cell changes a total, a grade and a rank, and someone finds it only after the card reaches home.
Paper register → Excel → Word -
Formats rebuilt every term
Scholastic areas, co-scholastic grades, attendance, remarks and now the Holistic Progress Card. Each board and each class needs its own layout, and the Word template breaks every time a subject changes.
Word template -
Substitutions arranged by phone at 7:45
Two teachers call in sick. The coordinator checks the timetable, guesses who is free, phones around and hopes no class is left unattended when the first bell rings.
Phone calls -
A timetable that takes weeks
Building it by hand means juggling teacher loads, rooms, labs and combined classes on a whiteboard, and one change in July means starting the clashes all over again.
Whiteboard -
Syllabus coverage is a guess
Lesson plans sit in notebooks, so nobody knows which sections are behind until the exam is a week away and the portion is not finished.
Notebooks -
Weak students found too late
Results are read as a list of marks after the final exam. By the time a pattern is visible, there is no term left to re-teach and no time for remedial classes.
List of marks
June to March, on one wall planner. Every note is something Schoolcanvas runs for you.
This is how the year looks at Green Valley Public School: two terms, ten months, and every timetable, test, report card and promotion pinned to the month it happens. Select any note to see how it works.

Timetable generator
Enter your classes, subjects, teachers, rooms and rules, and Schoolcanvas generates the whole timetable, 100% from those inputs. Then see the same timetable by block, room, teacher, class or section, and student.

Substitution
The timetable is linked with staff attendance, so it already knows who is absent. For every free period it suggests teachers of the same subject first, and keeps a free-teacher list and substitution reports so workloads stay fair.

Report card software for schools. Marks go in once, cards come out in your format.
Every Schoolcanvas report card is built to your school's academic requirements: your exam pattern, grading, subjects, co-scholastic areas, layout, logo and signatures. CBSE, ICSE, state boards and international curricula all run on the same engine, along with a dedicated HPC report card for the multi-skill format CBSE recently introduced under NEP 2020. Grades, ranks, attendance and graphs are filled in from the marks teachers entered, and the cards are published to the parent app and website.

Class teacher's remarks: Attentive and curious in class. Practise numericals in Science before Term 2.
One week of exam season, from an absent teacher to a remedial plan.
Exam season is when spreadsheets break and late nights begin. Here is one week at Green Valley Public School, where exam management, the timetable, lesson plans, marks, report cards and analysis all run on the same system.

Mon7:45 amSubstitution
Two teachers are absent. Every period is covered before the first bell.
Ms. Shalini and Mr. Kiran have not punched in on the biometric device. Because the timetable is linked with staff attendance, Schoolcanvas already knows which six periods are uncovered and which teachers are free in each. The coordinator sees same-subject teachers suggested first, confirms the list and gets back to the morning assembly.
- Absences picked up from staff attendance
- Free-teacher list for every period
- Substitution reports keep the load fair over the term
6 periods covered · same-subject teachers first -
Mon11:30 amLesson plans
The coordinator spots a section that is behind, with two weeks to go.
Lesson plans are matched to the exam schedule, so the status report shows each class and subject against the Term 1 portion. IX-D Social Science is two chapters behind. The coordinator speaks to the teacher the same morning and adds two periods, instead of finding out from parents after the paper.
- Class-wise plans against the exam date
- Status reports for every subject

Thu4:10 pmMark entry
Teachers enter marks once, in their own login. That is the last time anyone types them.
Ms. Menon enters the Science marks for IX-B after the last period. There is no Excel sheet to send and no register to copy into, and like every staff member she has the Schoolcanvas mobile app. The class register, term report, grades, ranks and analysis all draw on the marks she just saved.

The exam head generates report cards class by class, in the formats the school set up once: CBSE for the senior classes, the Holistic Progress Card for the junior grades and the school's own layout for pre-primary. Each card carries the logo, signatures, attendance and graphs. After a final check, they are published to the parent app and website, and nobody queues on result day.

The Maths department opens the result analysis for Class VIII. Section averages, subject-wise performance and the eleven students below 40% are already there, with the weakest chapter visible. They set up two remedial groups for the next three weeks, and the principal sees the same analysis for every class.
- Weak students flagged while there is time to help

Report cards with graphs
Graph-based report cards show a child's performance subject by subject, so parents see the pattern, not only the marks.
Holistic Progress Card, ready when you are
Used mainly for the junior grades, and by some schools up to Grade 8. CBSE encourages schools to adopt or adapt the HPC, and Schoolcanvas includes a dedicated HPC report card, so you can start with a few classes and extend it.

Observation that leads to an action plan
Every observation ends with feedback and an agreed next step, tracked in reports, so the follow-up visit checks what was promised.
Assessment that looks beyond marks, without doubling the work.
NEP 2020 asks schools to report on the whole child. The Holistic Progress Card, recently introduced by CBSE, records development across many skills and competencies, not only subjects. It is used mainly for the junior grades, and by some schools up to Grade 8. CBSE encourages schools to adopt or adapt it. Schoolcanvas lets you do that from the attendance, marks and activity records you already keep.
A dedicated HPC report card
A deep, multi-skill format that sits alongside your regular report cards. Use it for the classes where you have adopted it, and keep your usual card for the rest.
Scholastic and co-scholastic together
Co-scholastic areas as per CBSE, state and international board guidelines, entered by teachers and analysed alongside subject marks.
Built to your academic requirements
Your exam pattern, grading scale, subjects, remarks, layout, logo and signatures. Set up once, then reused every term.
Teacher development in the same system
Observation, feedback and reflection are part of the continuous professional development NEP 2020 encourages. The Classroom Observation Tool keeps that record.
One academic system, five very different jobs.
Principals, coordinators, teachers, students and parents each need something different from the academic year. Each of them gets their own view of the same data.

Questions academic teams ask before they switch.
Does Schoolcanvas support our board's report card format?
Yes. Schoolcanvas generates report cards for CBSE, ICSE, state boards and international curricula, in your school's own format, including scholastic and co-scholastic areas. Different classes can use different formats in the same school.
Can we customise the report card with our logo, grading and signatures?
Yes. Every report card is highly customisable and built to your school's academic requirements: exam pattern, grading scale, subjects, co-scholastic areas, remarks, layout, logo and signatures. We set up your formats as part of onboarding.
What is the Holistic Progress Card, and is it mandatory?
The Holistic Progress Card (HPC) is a report card format recently introduced by CBSE under NEP 2020. It looks at a child's development across many skills and competencies, not only subject marks. It is used mainly for the junior grades, and some schools use it up to Grade 8. CBSE encourages schools to adopt or adapt it, and Schoolcanvas includes a dedicated HPC report card for schools that do. Check the latest CBSE circulars for your own classes.
What is the HPC report card format?
The HPC is a deep, multi-skill format that records a child's progress across skills and competencies, not only subject marks. Schoolcanvas does not force one fixed layout on you. Like every Schoolcanvas report card, the HPC report card is set up in your school's own format, with the areas you assess, remarks, layout, logo and signatures, and filled in from the records teachers already keep. Bring your sample HPC to the demo and we will show it on Schoolcanvas.
What does report card software for schools do?
Teachers enter marks once in their own login. The software then builds the class register, term reports and each report card, with grades, ranks, attendance and graphs, in the format your school uses for each class, and publishes the cards to the parent app and website. Schoolcanvas also analyses results so weak students are spotted during the year.
Can parents see report cards on the app?
Yes. Once you publish them, report cards appear on the parent app and the website login, with graph-based performance by subject.
Does Schoolcanvas include exam management software?
Yes. Exam management covers the exam schedule, admit cards generated from the schedule and student records, a question bank and online tests, mark entry by each teacher in their own login, report cards and result analysis by class, section, subject and student.
Do teachers need to enter marks more than once?
No. Teachers enter marks once in their own login. The class register, term reports, report cards with grades and ranks, and result analysis are all generated from those marks.
Can we conduct online exams?
Yes. You can build tests from the question bank and run them online, alongside your regular paper exams. Admit cards for every student are generated from the exam schedule in a few clicks.
What does result analysis show?
Performance by class, section, subject and student, including co-scholastic analysis. It highlights students who need support, so teachers can plan remedial classes during the year rather than after the final exam.
How is the timetable created?
You enter your classes, subjects, teachers, rooms and rules, and Schoolcanvas generates the timetable 100% from those inputs. You can then view it by block, room, teacher, class or section, and student.
How does automatic substitution work?
The timetable is linked with staff attendance, so Schoolcanvas knows who is absent. For each uncovered period it suggests free teachers, starting with those who teach the same subject, and keeps a free-teacher list and substitution reports.
Can principals track lesson plans?
Yes. Teachers write class-wise lesson plans matched to the exam schedule, and principals and coordinators see status reports showing which classes are on track and which are behind.
Is there a classroom observation feature?
Yes. The Classroom Observation Tool gives principals and coordinators observation forms, rating scales, feedback, action plans and observation reports, and links observations to the teacher's appraisal, so lesson visits lead to real improvement.
Does the library module support barcodes?
Yes. The library has an online catalogue, barcode-based issue and return, due-date reminders, reservations for books in demand, automatic late fines and usage reports.
How long does it take to go live?
If your data is ready, we guarantee you will be live in 7 days. We migrate students, staff and academic history from Excel or your old software for free, set up your report card formats and train your teachers.
How does this connect to Assist?
Assist is our AI-powered LMS, with ready lessons, worksheets, board-pattern tests, an OMR scanner and 10+ AI tools from Nursery to Grade 12. Marks from Assist tests, including OMR-scanned papers, flow straight into Schoolcanvas report cards. Assist can also be bought on its own.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. You can try the Schoolcanvas ERP and Assist free for one month. Book a demo and we will set it up with your school's details.
