Everyone in Your School. Managed in One Place.
Students, staff, and parents — with detailed profiles, bulk import, and role-based access control built for Schools.

How Schools Use Femlify's User Management
Real scenarios from Schools
Migrating 280 Students from Excel
Secondary SchoolA school switching from manual records uses Bulk Import to upload all 280 students at once — downloading the official CSV template first to map their existing data. They use 'Import Students with Parents' to link guardian records simultaneously, cutting what would have been weeks of manual data entry down to one afternoon.
Setting Up Staff Access Control
Private SchoolA new school sets up role-based access before the first term. The principal gets School Administrator (36 permissions). The bursar gets Accountant (8 permissions — finance only). Three teachers each get Subject Teacher (3 permissions — score entry only). The class coordinator gets Class Teacher role with attendance and class management permissions.
Linking Parents to Students
Primary SchoolAfter importing students, the registrar adds guardian profiles for each family. Parents can be added individually with full contact details or imported in bulk. Each guardian record shows how many children they have in the school, making it easy to see family groups.
Creating a Custom Role
K12 SchoolA school hires a new Data Entry Officer role not covered by default roles. The admin creates a custom role, names it 'Data Entry Officer', and selects only Enter Assessment Records and Scores Academics permissions. The officer can enter scores but cannot access finance, settings, or reports.

How to Migrate Your Student Database to Femlify
The single question that stops more schools from switching to a better management system than any other is not about price, features, or support. It is this: "What happens to all our data?"
Role-Based Access Control Best Practices for School Administrators
Not every member of your school's staff needs access to the same information. The class teacher who takes daily attendance does not need visibility into the school's financial records. The bursar processing fee payments does not need to see individual student academic scores. The proprietor overseeing the school's overall performance does not need to be creating individual invoices. When a school moves its operations onto a management platform, one of the most important — and most overlooked — decisions is who gets access to what. Many schools make the same mistake: they give every staff member administrator-level access because it is "easier." The result is financial records visible to class teachers, student personal data accessible to support staff, and no clear audit trail when something goes wrong.
