Running a school comes with a long to-do list—but with Scolera, you don’t have to spend hours stuck in admin tasks. Whether you're managing attendance, communicating with parents, or handling finances, Scolera is packed with features designed to save you time. In this post, we’ll explore 10 tips and tricks to help you work smarter and faster.
1. Use Smart Search Everywhere
Stop clicking through menus. Use Scolera’s universal smart search bar to quickly find students, staff, reports, or modules in seconds. It’s like your personal school assistant.
2. Set Up Bulk Actions for Attendance & Grading
Why do it one-by-one? Use bulk attendance marking or grade entry tools to update entire classes with a few clicks. Ideal for busy mornings or post-exam rush.
3. Customize Your Dashboard Widgets
Personalize your Scolera dashboard with widgets that matter most—like pending fees, today’s timetable, or unread messages. This reduces the time spent navigating across modules.
4. Automate Daily Notifications
Set up automated messages for absences, upcoming exams, or fee reminders. This keeps everyone informed without you lifting a finger each time.
5. Use Templates for Reports and Circulars
Save your frequently used formats (like circulars, student reports, or certificates) as templates. Reuse them anytime and just update the specifics—no need to start from scratch.
6. Schedule Reports in Advance
Need weekly attendance summaries or fee collection reports? Schedule them to be auto-generated and emailed to you or your team at a set time.
7. Take Advantage of Role-Based Access
Assign roles and permissions smartly so tasks get delegated automatically—teachers handle grading, accountants manage fees, and admins oversee everything. No micromanagement needed.
8. Enable Quick Links for Frequent Actions
Pin your most-used actions—like adding a new admission, viewing today’s timetable, or messaging a class—to your quick access toolbar for one-click actions.
9. Use the Help Center & Shortcuts Guide
Save hours of confusion by checking out the in-app Help Center and the keyboard shortcuts guide. They're filled with answers and time-saving tricks you may not know exist.
