What is State Board school management software?
+
State Board school management software is an ERP built around the regulations of an Indian State Education Board (SSC / HSC) plus pan-India requirements like UDISE+, the RTE Act, and DBT scholarship schemes. Unlike a generic ERP, it automates the 25% RTE quota, maintains the legally mandated General Register, generates Leaving Certificates in state-mandated formats, and produces report cards in the regional language.
How does SchoolDeck handle UDISE+ data submission?
+
UDISE+ — the Unified District Information System for Education Plus run by the Ministry of Education — requires schools to submit annual data on enrolment, infrastructure, staff, and attendance. SchoolDeck maintains every UDISE+ field year-round, runs a pre-export validator to catch gaps, and exports a CSV mapped exactly to the portal's column order — accepted on first upload. The same data drives state portals like SARAL (Maharashtra) and Shala Darpan (Rajasthan).
How is the RTE 25% quota managed under Section 12(1)(c)?
+
The RTE Act, 2009 mandates that 25% of seats at the entry-level class in unaided private schools be reserved for children from economically weaker and disadvantaged sections — with the state government reimbursing the school. SchoolDeck tags RTE students at admission, routes their fee invoices to a separate Government Receivables ledger (instead of the parent), and generates the demographic and attendance reports the Block / District Education Officer needs to process reimbursement claims. Minority schools exempt under Article 30 can disable the RTE module entirely.
Can we maintain the General Register (GR) digitally?
+
Yes. The General Register is the legally binding permanent record every state board school must maintain. SchoolDeck digitises this exact format: auto-assigns sequential GR numbers at admission, stores full demographic data (caste, religion, birthplace, date of leaving), and logs departure with the LC reference. A duplicate Leaving Certificate request for a student who left 10 years ago is retrieved in under a second — no dusty storeroom required.
Does the software support regional languages?
+
Yes — 13 regional languages: Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Bengali, Malayalam, Punjabi, Odia, Assamese, Konkani and Urdu. Generate Leaving Certificates, term-end report cards, and admission forms natively alongside English. Automated WhatsApp and SMS alerts go out in the parent's preferred language, which is why most state board schools see a sharp jump in parent message read rates after switching.
How does SchoolDeck handle DBT scholarships?
+
Direct Benefit Transfer needs Aadhar + bank + IFSC data for SC, ST, OBC, and minority scholarship schemes. SchoolDeck maintains a secure encrypted vault for this data, tracks application status per student per scheme (Pre-Matric, Post-Matric, Savitribai Phule, etc.), and generates the consolidated Excel files required for portal upload. Approval status flows back into the student profile.
Does SchoolDeck work on slow internet?
+
Yes. Critical front-desk operations work in offline mode and sync when connectivity returns — attendance, cash fee collection, receipt printing. The parent app is optimised for low-end Android phones on 2G and intermittent 3G connections, with a small APK footprint. This is intentional architecture for Tier-2, Tier-3, and rural schools where reliable broadband can't be assumed.
