Young children need more flexible billing, more safety checks, and more parent communication than a typical timetable system provides. Here's what's different about how preschools, playgroups, and nurseries use SchoolTracs.
Preschools bill in different ways — a nursery might charge a simple monthly fee, while a playgroup often sells packages of 10 or 6 lessons. SchoolTracs supports both, and invoices generate automatically from whatever plan a student is actually enrolled in.
Parents and teachers stay in touch constantly — notices, progress updates, concerns — without exposing personal phone numbers on either side.
What parents care about most is who's picking up their child. Scan a student's QR code to check them in, and set an authorized pickup list for every student.
Young children can't describe their own day, so the learning journal keeps an ongoing record for every student instead.
Parents can view the day's journal and photos, pay invoices online, and apply for leave — no phone calls or messages needed.
Teachers see the updated timetable and take attendance right from their phone.
Reschedule directly from the timetable with instant conflict checks, and every room's capacity limit is enforced automatically so classes never go over.
Sell workbooks, craft supplies, or other add-ons from the same point of sale used for tuition, with stock tracked automatically.
Case Study
Mulberry House is a Mandarin-focused, bilingual playgroup and kindergarten founded in 2015, now operating three branches across Hong Kong. Before SchoolTracs, student data and scheduling lived in two separate systems that were difficult to keep in sync. Switching to SchoolTracs consolidated both into a single platform, keeping student records and timetables aligned across all three branches.
