School ERP software for CBSE schools
Run your CBSE school’s exams, internal assessment, report cards, attendance and fees in one platform — with the student records that board registrations, APAAR and UDISE+ depend on kept accurate all year.
Exams and internal assessment the way CBSE structures them
CBSE assessment combines written examinations with internal assessment — periodic tests, notebook submission, subject enrichment, practicals and projects, depending on the class and subject. In SchoolKonnect each paper can be split into components with their own maximum marks, so a Class X subject can carry its theory and internal assessment parts separately and combine them on the report card. Because CBSE revises its schemes by circular, the structure is configured by the school rather than hard-coded.
Clean records for registration, APAAR and UDISE+
Board registrations, the list of candidates, APAAR IDs and UDISE+ returns all depend on each student’s name, date of birth and parents’ names matching their documents. SchoolKonnect keeps one record per student, used by admissions, attendance, fees and exams, with documents attached and identity fields stored on the record — so the data is checked once, at admission.
Attendance that counts toward eligibility
Attendance percentages matter for board exam eligibility. Daily marking with present, absent, late and half-day statuses, approved leave and a running percentage per student mean the office can see who is at risk months before the exam, not after.
Report cards parents can download
Teachers enter marks for their own papers and write remarks; the exam coordinator reviews and publishes; parents see results and download report cards in the app. Year-end promotion applies your pass rules the same way to every student.
Board schemes change by circular. SchoolKonnect is configured by your school, so it follows the scheme your board currently publishes.
Modules CBSE schools use most
Exams & report cards
Set up the exam, let each teacher enter marks for only their own papers, and publish results to families the moment the office approves them..
Attendance
Teachers mark the register on any phone.
Admissions & enquiries
Every walk-in, call and online form becomes an enquiry you can follow up.
Fee management
Set fee heads once, bill every student correctly, collect at the counter or online, and know exactly who still owes what — without a spreadsheet in sight..
Parent app
Parents see their child’s week at a glance — attendance, homework, fees, diary and results — and can message teachers, pay fees and request early pick-up without calling the office..
Teacher app & timetable
Each teacher opens SchoolKonnect to a short list of what needs doing today, their own timetable, and their own students — nothing else to learn..
CBSE schools: common questions
Can SchoolKonnect handle CBSE internal assessment?
Yes. Papers can be split into components such as theory, internal assessment, practical and project, each with its own maximum marks, and combined on the report card.
Does it help with APAAR IDs and UDISE+?
SchoolKonnect keeps one accurate record per student with documents attached, and stores identity fields such as PEN and APAAR ID on the student record, which makes APAAR and UDISE+ work much easier. Submissions themselves are made on the government portals.
Can we design our own CBSE report card?
Report cards are built from your exam structure, and certificates and documents can be designed in the built-in designer with your school’s branding.
