SchoolWrite is a networked school administration system, maintaining academic records for classroom management, and keeping accurate school accounting information. SchoolWrite licensed software is network-enabled and multi-user. SchoolWrite Lite (free software) is single-user.

SchoolWrite is built in 9 modules.  These may be looked at as sub-programs, (each performing a specific task), which make up a full system but can run independently or in combination.  These are:

… from which a school can select any combination depending on its specific requirements and/or financial position.  Any combination is possible, whereas components may be added any time.

SchoolWrite is used by K-12 school administrators and teachers to:

  o maintain academic records of students and generate printouts
o print school timetables - for teachers and students
o prepare end-of-term report cards 
o bill school fees to parents - and follow up overdue fees
o keep school accounts and provide financial reports
o pay staff
o pay school accounts
o assemble future Enrolments and prioritise
o track past students

SchoolWrite is a user-friendly environment, which is comfortable for school administration staff that may not be especially computer-literate. The menu-driven screens have detailed explanations, along with many user-entered options. The operator does not need to be a programmer or a database expert!

SchoolWrite is an open system. It provides a web-based interface, for staff using totally familiar web browsers. SchoolWrite also has open data access, which means that  data is accessible by other software.

The SchoolWrite main menu provides access to eight modules. Each module is totally integrated with the others. Yet each module can stand alone, allowing schools to select, which components they wish to install.

SchoolWrite  is screen-driven  and prompts  the  user  with  menu  selections  to  achieve  the desired purpose. All selections are obtained by entering keys  (as indicated on the screen) or  by clicking with the mouse.

Staff Payroll is a separate, integrated module that runs in a totally separate program - for security reasons i.e. the payroll is run from a separate icon, and only authorised staff are provided with this icon.

In the File Menu, options provide the immediate on-screen services of

a calendar and appointment tracker (directly linked to the SchoolWrite  Intranet School Calendar display)

the windows calculator

The Windows notepad

SchoolWrite software is the background work engine. It combines comprehensive academic and family details with a flexible billing system, and links this information with a school ledger. Using family and academic records for billing as well as administration, ensures minimum data entry, and results in the use of up-to-date information in all areas of the school.  The utilization of this information by faculty as well as administrative staff will enhance the performance of the whole school.
