DIGISCHOOL

Kinds of school

Four kinds of school, four sets of rules

A school is not just a school. The ladder decides how a mark is written, what the report card is called, and which board is waiting at the end of it. DIGISCHOOL models all four rather than relabelling one.

These are the kinds of institution the software is built for, not a list of the schools using it.

Side by side

Pick your school, see how it runs

Each kind of school keeps its own ladder, its own report card and its own examinations. Choose yours to see what DIGISCHOOL sets up for it.

Set up your school and look around

Registration creates an empty school that only you can see. Nothing is shared with any other school on the platform, and there is nothing to cancel.
