ERP for school groups that keeps every campus in step.

Schoolcanvas is an ERP for school groups, trusts and franchise chains. One login shows every campus, side by side or as one group, while each school still runs its own day.

Why groups are different

One school is a timetable. Five schools is a coordination problem.

Each new campus brings its own office, its own habits and often its own software. The group office ends up chasing numbers instead of reading them.

  1. Five campuses, five spreadsheets

    Monday's figures reach the group office on Thursday, each in a different format, and someone retypes them for the trustees.

  2. Rules drift campus by campus

    Concessions, fee dates and late fines start the same and slowly differ, until nobody is sure which version is current.

  3. Admissions with no group view

    Enquiries land at whichever branch a parent rang. Nobody sees the whole season, or which campus is filling and which is not.

  4. Franchise schools out of sight

    Oversight means a visit each term and photos of registers on a phone. Problems surface when a parent complains to head office.

The group control room

What an ERP for school groups looks like from the chairman's chair.

Students, fees, admissions and staff for every campus sit in one login. Look at the group as a whole, compare campuses side by side, or open one school, from the office or from your phone.

Multi-campus school management

Decide once at the centre. Let every campus run its day.

Groups that run well draw a clear line between what head office owns and what each principal owns. Schoolcanvas fits that line instead of blurring it.

Group office

Set by the group

  • Fee structures and concessionsAgree the fee heads, concessions, scholarships and instalments for each campus and trust, and see them applied in one system. Finance →
  • The numbers the board reviewsA group dashboard and reports built once, read by trustees every week. Add-on Modules →
  • Who sees whatRole and permission based access, so the group decides who sees which campus and which records. Add-on Modules →
  • Your name on the appParents download an app in your school's name and logo. Add-on Modules →
  • Teaching content for every campusThe same Assist content library, lesson plans and AI tools in every classroom of the group. Assist →
Each campus

Run by the campus

  • Attendance and absence alertsTeachers mark attendance in the app; parents of absent children hear the same day. Student Management →
  • The fee counterEach campus collects at its own counter or online; the totals reach the group as they happen. Finance →
  • Timetable and substitutionsBuilt for each campus, with a free teacher of the same subject suggested for each absence. Academics →
  • Gate, visitors and enquiriesOTP gate passes, the visitor log and walk-in enquiries at each front office. Admissions →
  • Buses and staffEach campus runs its routes and staff attendance; the group sees every branch's fleet and staff. Transport →

Both sides work on one central database, so nothing a campus enters has to be typed again for the group.

School franchise management

Every school with your name on it, held to the same standard.

A franchise school is run by its partner but judged by parents under your brand. The Multi-School & Franchise Management add-on lets you watch every partner school remotely, from the web or your phone.

Audit Management

Audits with a checklist, not a clipboard

Plan audit schedules for each school, work through the same checklist everywhere, record findings and track every follow-up action to closure.

Northgate · term audit Example
  • Fire safety checklist Done
  • Fee receipts sample Done
  • Staff records 2 findings
  • Follow-up due 15 Nov
Accreditation & documents

No certificate expires unnoticed

Affiliation and statutory documents stored by board and type, with review and expiry reminders.

Complaints

See what parents raise, and what was done

Each complaint gets an ID, goes to the person responsible, and is flagged when it runs past its resolution time.

Your brand

Your app and website

An app in your school's name and logo, and a school website with SEO that sends enquiries to admissions.

Group Message

One message to every partner school

Reach a custom group, such as all franchise principals, by SMS, notification or app, with delivery reports.

Audits, documents, branding and group messages are add-ons. Switch on only what your group needs.See all Add-on Modules →

Questions

Questions school groups ask us first.

Running the group
Can we manage all our schools from one login?

Yes. With the Multi-School & Franchise Management add-on, students, fees, admissions and staff for every campus are in one login, and you can run the group remotely from the web or your phone.

Can we compare campuses side by side?

Yes. Schoolcanvas has a wide range of multi-school reports, so you can compare campuses or see the group as a whole. You can also build your own group dashboard with the Dashboard Builder and your own reports with the Custom Report Builder.

Our campuses sit under different trusts. Can fees still be handled together?

Yes. Fees for several trusts can be collected in one payment, and collection centres at different campuses are managed from one place, with live totals for each.

How do admissions work across branches?

Enquiries collected at every office and branch are tracked and followed up centrally, so the group sees its whole admission season in one view.

Franchise and setup
Does it work for a franchise chain?

Yes. Franchise management is part of the same add-on. Partner schools work in Schoolcanvas day to day, and head office watches them remotely, with audit checklists, document expiry reminders and complaint tracking available as add-ons.

Can our schools have the app in our own brand?

Yes. With the Custom Mobile App add-on, parents download an app in your school's name and logo from Google Play and the App Store.

How long does it take to bring our campuses on board?

The Schoolcanvas ERP goes live in 7 days when your data is ready, and migration of existing data from Excel or another ERP is free. We plan the campus order with you.
