School administration in one system.

CoreSchool brings a secondary school’s staff, students and guardians into one register. One ID card takes each person from the front gate to the classroom register, and every school gets a CoreSchool of its own.

    • Subject lessons
    • Exam registrations

One card, from the front gate to the classroom.

Every staff member and student carries one ID card. CoreSchool uses it to take attendance, decide who gets through each door, and raise the alarm when it matters.

Staff and students tap their ID card at a kiosk to clock in and out, with no sign-in sheet. Between taps, the kiosk shows the school’s announcements.

Teachers take each lesson’s register on screen, or scan students’ cards as they walk in. Lateness is marked for you, and a register that hasn’t been taken gets a reminder.

The same card decides who gets through each door, in real time. It’s a decision of its own, kept separate from attendance.

Flag a card and CoreSchool raises an alert the moment it’s scanned. Alerts reach the staff, guardians or kiosks that need to know, as they happen.

Less paperwork for the office.

The records, timetables and figures a school runs on, kept in one place and kept up to date.

Records

One register for every staff member, student and guardian.

Profiles, family links and health records sit together. Changes made by office staff wait for a principal’s sign-off before they take effect.

Timetable & calendar

Timetables and a school calendar that work together.

Build a weekly or rolling-cycle timetable. Mark a holiday on the calendar and attendance knows the school was closed, and families can add the calendar to their own.

Analytics & reports

Figures that keep themselves up to date.

School-wide figures are recalculated in the background as things change, and reports come out as PDF or CSV when you need them.

Made for everyone at school.

Each person sees what their role needs, from the principal’s office to the classroom, the front desk and home.

Frequently asked questions

If you can’t find what you’re looking for, get in touch and we’ll get back to you.

    • Is CoreSchool shared with other schools?

      No. Each school gets its own CoreSchool, at its own web address, with its own accounts and records. Nothing in it is shared with another school.

    • What kind of school is it built for?

      Secondary schools. It’s organised the way they run: grade levels, home classes, timetabled subject lessons and external exam registrations.

    • How can we see CoreSchool for ourselves?

      Request a demo. The form is for members of the teaching staff of a secondary school, and we’ll contact you to arrange it.

    • Do we need to install anything?

      No. Staff and parents use CoreSchool in a web browser, on a computer or a phone.

    • Do we need ID cards?

      Only for the parts that scan: clocking in at a kiosk, door access, scanning students into lessons and signing in visitors. Registers can still be marked by hand, and the rest of CoreSchool works without cards.

    • Do we have to use every part of it?

      No. CoreSchool is made of modules, such as attendance, door access, grades, the timetable and the clinic, and your school uses the ones it needs.

    • Can we bring in our existing records?

      Yes. A principal can import students, staff, guardians, ID cards and more from a spreadsheet saved as CSV, and CoreSchool checks every row before anything is saved.

    • Can we add the school calendar to our phones?

      Yes. Staff and parents can subscribe to the school calendar in Google, Apple or Outlook Calendar, so school events appear beside their own.

    • How do staff and parents sign in?

      At your school’s own CoreSchool address, where staff and parents each have their own sign-in page. If you’re stuck, CoreSchool help walks you through it.

    • How do parents get an account?

      Through the school. Parent accounts are set up at the school office, or a parent can register online using the letter the school gives them.

    • How are sign-ins kept secure?

      Staff can be asked for a six-digit code after their password, sent by email or shown in an authenticator app, and after several wrong passwords, sign-in pauses for a while.

    • Where can I read your terms and privacy policy?

      Our terms and conditions and privacy policy are published online.
