Roadmap
What works today, what we are building next, and what comes later. We only list a feature under “Available now” when it is working for schools.
Schools can register now. Register your school
Available now
- Student records and enrolment
Add students one by one or by spreadsheet, link parents, allocate classes, store documents and print ID cards.
- Attendance
Daily registers for students, with attendance rates for parents and administrators.
- Scores, results and report cards
Score entry, result computation, class positions, finalising results, printable report cards and analytics.
- Fees and online payments
Fee structures, invoices, card and transfer payments by parents, receipts and automatic payouts to the school's bank account.
- Learning (LMS)
Courses with uploaded files, assignments handed in as files, grading, discussions, class insight and progress tracking.
- Quizzes with a fair timer
Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions, shuffled for each student, with the clock kept on our server.
- Online work in results
Marked assignments and quizzes suggest each student's CA3 mark, and the teacher stays in charge.
- Notifications
A bell for new work, marked work, announcements and live classes, plus reminders before deadlines and classes.
- Live classes and paid library
Schedule live classes with attendance, show courses to chosen classes, and sell library items through the normal fees invoice.
- Online Exams & Quizzes add-on
Timed quizzes marked automatically, billed per term.
- Messaging and notices
Parent, teacher and office chat, a notice board, and email broadcasts.
- Fee reminders to parents
Email the parents of students who owe fees, with the real balance for each child. Failed deliveries are reported, never hidden.
- Subscriptions that follow the term
Pay per student before enrolling, renewal reminders, and a clear pause with your data kept safe if a new term is not paid for.
- Two-step sign-in
School administrators can protect their account with an authenticator app, with recovery codes if a phone is lost.
- Forgot password by email
Reset your own password from the sign-in page with a one-time link.
- Safer sign-in
Accounts lock for a short time after repeated wrong attempts, and new accounts must replace their temporary password at first sign-in.
- Audit log and school separation
A searchable record of important changes, and each school's data kept completely apart.
- Knowledge Base
Step-by-step guides for every part of the platform, with search.
Building next
- SMS delivery
School-branded SMS to parents once our SMS partner approves the sender name.
- Automatic reminders
Fee due-date reminders, absence alerts and "results are out" notices that send themselves.
- Roles and permissions
Let a school give a bursar, a head of department or a secretary exactly the access they need.
- Online Admission Portal
A public page where parents apply, with entrance tracking and offer letters. Planned as an add-on.
- Payroll, Virtual Classrooms and API access
The modules already in development as optional add-ons, released as each one is ready. Schools can already create an API key; the public API that accepts it is still being built.
Later
- Branded mobile app
A school-branded Android and iOS app for parents and students.
- Bus tracking
Live school-bus location for parents and the transport team.
- More integrations
Connect Lumbyte to the other tools a school uses.
Dates are not promised for items under “Building next” and “Later”, because we would rather ship them properly than ship them early. Want something prioritised? Send a feature request.
