How Academiq works

A walk through the platform in the order you will actually use it — from creating your institution to publishing results and collecting fees. Written for the people running the school, not for developers.

Contents

  1. 1 Getting started What Academiq is, how to create your institution, and the eight steps that make it usable.
  2. 2 Academic years, classes and subjects The academic structure everything else hangs off: years, terms, classes, sections, subjects and the timetable.
  3. 3 Students, parents and admissions Enrolling students, linking parents, taking applications from your website, scholarships and end-of-year promotion.
  4. 4 Staff, teachers and payroll Adding teaching and non-teaching staff, running monthly payroll, and handling leave requests.
  5. 5 Attendance Marking daily student attendance, recording staff attendance, and who can see the registers.
  6. 6 Exams, assessments and results Setting up exams and grade scales, recording continuous assessment, entering marks and publishing results.
  7. 7 Assignments Setting work for a class, collecting submissions online, and grading with feedback.
  8. 8 Fees, invoices and payments Defining what you charge, issuing invoices, taking card payments, and chasing what is outstanding.
  9. 9 Hostel and transport Boarding houses, rooms, allocations and visitors; school vehicles, routes and student pickups.
  10. 10 Announcements, events and messages Reaching the whole school or one person, publishing the calendar, and handling complaints.
  11. 11 Certificates, ID cards and documents Generating print-ready documents from templates, and where uploaded files are kept.
  12. 12 The AI assistant Drafting report sheet remarks, lesson plans and CA questions — what it writes, what a teacher must approve, what leaves your school, and what it costs.
  13. 13 Roles, permissions and portals The six kinds of user, what each one sees, and how to change who can do what.
  14. 14 Your subscription The free trial, what each plan includes, renewal and cancellation, and what happens if a payment fails.
  15. 15 The API Reading your school data from your own tools: tokens, endpoints, paging and limits.
  16. 16 Security, audit and recovering data Two-step login, the activity log, restoring deleted records, and how your data is kept separate.
