This section describes concepts and the functionality that SchoolDrive provides for the school staff.

The Inbox is the place were issues are listed that the school staff has to deal with. The issues are categorized. The school staff's task is to resolve the issues in the Inbox, thus optimally there are as few open issues left as possible. It is a good practice to start your work in the Inbox and check what still needs to be done. For further information go to the Inbox section.

The system manages the course and related data like students, teachers and corporate customers. Course administration is on course session level, thus the system knows for each session where it takes place (on room level), who was teaching and for what rate, who is the customer, which students were present and what happened during the session. Course sessions can be postponed, cancelled or late-cancelled. For further information go to the Courses, Students, Customers and Rooms sections.

The system contains an invoicing system. If a course is invoiced then also the course and the student / customer has to be specified as part of the invoice items. This way the system has the information who has paid what and what is still due. The system supports registration of teacher invoices. Customer invoices can be automatically issued on monthly basis or based on a schedule and shared with the customers.

The user interface is built from the following tabs: Courses, Teachers, Students, Rooms, Waiting list, Customers, Inbox, Finance, Sales and Settings.

A step-by-step description of common procedures can be found here: starting a new course, rescheduling course sessions, student applications, adding new students, adding new teachers, adding new customers, issuing an invoice, add breaks and change customer or teacher rates.
