The Solution

25 Points built a multi-portal school information system under one connected platform — giving every role the right workflows, data, and tools without scattering records across disconnected tools.

Before

School operations were scattered and manual

  • Administrators, teachers, parents, and students relied on disconnected tools, spreadsheets, and paper follow-up.
  • Sensitive student and school data was at risk of being scattered across informal channels.
  • Leadership lacked reliable visibility into academic performance, enrollment, attendance, and operations.
After

One secure platform for every role

  • One connected platform with role-based portals for administrators, teachers, parents, students, IT, staff, and alumni.
  • Academic workflows from attendance and grade entry through report-card review, locking, publishing, and secure parent access.
  • Secure data access with role permissions, audit logs, structured imports, and document generation that protect student and school records.
  • Public website and admissions intake for school information, news, careers, events, and enquiries.
  • Foundation for analytics, reporting, automation, and AI readiness through clean, structured institutional data.

Featured Workflow

From Classroom Grades to Official Report Cards

This workflow shows that the system is more than a collection of pages. It supports a coordinated academic process from classroom entry to parent access.

01

Enter Grades

A subject teacher opens the gradebook and enters scores, behavior ratings, effort marks, and subject comments.

02

Submit to Class Teacher

The subject teacher submits grades to the class teacher for aggregation and review.

03

Aggregate & Prepare Reports

The class teacher aggregates the subject records and prepares the report cards for generation.

04

Lock Records

Approved gradebooks are locked to protect final academic records.

05

Add Holistic Comments

Class teachers add holistic comments once subject records are complete.

06

Publish Report Cards

Section heads complete final review and publish the report cards.

07

Parent & Student Access

Parents and students receive secure access to the official report-card PDF.

08

Acknowledge Receipt

Parents can acknowledge receipt, giving the school visibility into who has viewed the report.

This reduces manual follow-up, improves accountability, protects academic records, and gives families faster access to official results.
