Feature Ideas

It would be great if, when filtering by period, there was an option for “This school year”.

When we click on a Related Contact that has 1 student or multiple like 3 for example. We want there to be a tab for Billing that allows billing admin to see all the fees/payments/billing for all the students linked to the contact. It would help our billing admin greatly.

In the monthly view, classes are fully visible. In the weekly view, they are not so it's not fully visible all the time without hovering or clicking. Could we have like my suggestion in the title. Thanks

We have a few teachers that are training other newer teachers. But we don't need or want them to see every teacher's schedule. Currently I believe we can set a teacher to be able to see everyone's or just their own. It would be great if there was a way to select which other teachers' calendars they could see and to what level of permission they have.

Teacher Communication

The default "Most relevant" doesn't do a good job of predicting what's most relevant. For example, we have classes that last several hours and attendance is taken every 60 minutes or so. So if class starts at 4:00, then we have a check in time at 4:00, and then one at 5:00 or so and another at 6:00 or so, etc. But if a teacher doesn't take attendance until 4:15, the 4:00 lesson isn't visible in the default "most relevant," causing confusion and frustration for the teachers and students. Please consider that the most relevant includes the current time, not just future times.

At the moment email templates only allow the following variables: {RECIPIENT_FIRSTNAME} {RECIPIENT_NAME} {STUDENT_ID} {SCHOOL_NAME} It would be great if we could use all the other variables available with student document templates! Also I have a lot of students who are reporting that the emails are going to SPAM! Is there anything that you can do to prevent this?

Have to scroll down along way as we have many, so its easy to lose position as there is no clear separation.

It would be lovely if we could share student fees for a certain period with the parents (without having to create an invoice). This need comes because many parents feel uncomfortable with technology so they do not use the portal. We already have this info in student fees (including paid, up to date and upcoming) but the only way to share with parents is by sending a screenshot.

In some reports you can filter by class, others class and student. Being able to filter all reports by 1. Teacher 2. Student 3. Class would be very helpful. (Adding teacher especially to pending attendance being most helpful for us).

When you postpone a lesson/class the students from that class still appear on the pending attendance report - they shouldnt as the lesson didnt go ahead.

We need the ability to send out various forms electronically to related contacts for new students who are in prospect, we need to send them out they are enrolled. As it's important that before a student is enrolled that we receive certain key forms signed by related contacts.

We need to generate a report for each student each Trimester. At the moment we create a word document for each each student showing information for each trimester and then each teacher has to type their comments and results for each student. I would like the option to include a customisable report template for each student that could be updated in the student file

SMS communication is expensive for the students and dated, while WhatsApp is free. Students can authorized channel.

I would ideally like to have a single account per family or company so contact details, address etc only needs be updated once e.g for companies I have one primary contact be maybe 20 students also for families where there are 2 or more people in the family who are students, sometimes the parent / primary contact is also a student. The data is not always accurate if there is a charge of address or telephone number. Also we are not using the stripe integration yet but it would help for payments to have a single contact for multiple students.
