Why state board schools switch

A school ERP for state board schools should start from your rules.

Much school software is shaped around one board’s pattern, and every other school has to work around it. Your board, your state and your families each set their own rules. The software should follow them.

  • Report cards

    A template built for another board

    Fixed columns, the wrong grade bands and terms that don’t match your exam calendar. Teachers end up redoing the sheet by hand.

    With Schoolcanvas: your exam pattern, grading, subjects and layout, set up once.

    See Academics & Examination →
  • Certificates

    A TC that isn’t in your format

    A transfer certificate or bonafide letter has to look the way your school has always issued it, with the same wording and seal.

    With Schoolcanvas: every certificate type is customisable, and fills itself from the record.

    See Student Management →
  • Parents

    An app half the parents never open

    Many families use a basic phone, or would rather hear a message than read one, and read best in the language they use at home.

    With Schoolcanvas: SMS, voice calls, WhatsApp and the app, in each family’s language.

    See Communication →
  • Fees

    Fee rules squeezed into fixed fields

    Concessions, scholarships, sibling discounts and instalments are part of how many state board schools charge fees, not exceptions.

    With Schoolcanvas: fee structures built around your rules, with online payment and Tally sync.

One record, your formats

Schoolcanvas adapts to your board, not the other way round.

Try it. Change the grading, the exam pattern or the document below. The student’s record stays the same; only the format changes, the way your school sets it.

Example only, with a fictional school and student. Your own formats are set up with you, once, and reused every term.

Every family, any phone

Reach the parent with a basic phone as surely as the one with the app.

At many state board schools, the families you most need to reach are the ones least likely to open an app. Schoolcanvas sends the same notice on every channel a family uses, and shows you who got it.

  • SMS

    Text for basic phones

    Absence alerts, fee reminders and notices arrive as a plain SMS, from the school’s name.

  • ☏

    Voice calls for urgent news

    A recorded call for a rain holiday or early closing, for parents who would rather listen than read.

  • Aa

    In the language each family reads

    Write notices in English or the family’s own language, on WhatsApp, SMS and the app.

Questions

Questions state board schools ask before they switch.

Formats and records
Can report cards follow our state board’s format?

Yes. Every Schoolcanvas report card is built to your school’s academic requirements: your exam pattern, grading, subjects, co-scholastic areas, layout, logo and signatures. Teachers enter marks once in their own login, and class registers, term reports and report cards are generated from them.

Can TCs and certificates be issued in the format our school uses?

Yes. Every certificate type is fully customisable, including layout, wording, letterhead, logo and signatures. Once your formats are set up, TCs and certificates are filled in from each student’s record in minutes.

Does Schoolcanvas support UDISE+ and APAAR?

Yes. Schoolcanvas is integrated with UDISE+ and APAAR, so the student data you already keep supports your government submissions.

Parents and fees
Many of our parents don’t use smartphones. How do we reach them?

Schoolcanvas sends messages by app notification, WhatsApp, SMS, email and recorded voice call, so parents with a basic phone are reached too. Messages can be written in the language each family reads, and delivery reports show who received them. SMS, WhatsApp and voice calls run through integrated service providers; app notifications are free.

Can fee structures include concessions and scholarships?

Yes. Fee structures can include concessions, sibling discounts, scholarships, late fines and instalments. Parents can pay online, payments settle straight into the school’s account, and Schoolcanvas has complete Tally integration.

Teaching and cost
Is there teaching content for state board classes?

Yes. Assist, the AI LMS from Schoolcanvas, includes ready content for state boards, with worksheets, tests and 10+ AI tools for teachers. Marks from Assist flow into Schoolcanvas report cards. We can show you the content for your classes in the demo.

How much does it cost, and can we try it first?

Pricing depends on the modules you choose and the size of your school, so we share a quote after a short demo. You can try the ERP and Assist free for a month, data migration is free, and if your data is ready you can be live in 7 days.
