HR & payroll
Payroll that follows attendance, month after month
Staff attendance and approved leave flow straight into the monthly payroll run, so salaries are right first time and payslips are ready the same day.
HR & payroll: what you can do
Staff records
Teaching and non-teaching staff with roles, documents and joining details.
Salary components
Basic, allowances and deductions defined once and applied per employee.
Monthly payroll runs
Working days from attendance, approval before payment, and a clear paid count.
Payslips
Generated for every employee in the run, ready to share.
Leave management
Leave applications and approvals that the payroll already knows about.
Teacher workload
Subject and class assignments linked to the timetable.
Part of one connected school platform
HR & payroll shares its records with every other SchoolKonnect module — students, classes, staff and fees are entered once and used everywhere. That is why reports add up and parents see the same figures as the office.
