Platform Features

Everything your school needs — in one platform

No modules to bolt on. No extra charges per feature. Every Scholivra plan includes the complete school management platform.

📋

Online Enrolment Wizard

A 7-step public form that collects child details, parent information, medical records, emergency contacts, contract signatures, and document uploads — all before the parent sets foot in the office.

🎒

Learner Management

Full learner profiles with automatic student number generation, grade and class assignment, document storage, and a complete enrolment history from application to graduation.

✏️

Mark Capture & CAPS Levels

Structured marksheets for classwork, tests, assignments, and exams. Percentages and achievement levels (A–G for CAPS/IEB; A*–U for Cambridge) calculate instantly as you type.

📄

Report Cards

Auto-generated branded report cards with aggregate, class rank, attendance, teacher comments, principal comments, conduct rating, and POPIA-compliant promotion/retention status.

📅

Daily Attendance Register

Mark every learner present, absent, late, or excused with an optional note. Bulk "mark all present" for quick capture. Term summaries with percentage attendance tracking.

👨‍👩‍👧

Parent Portal

Secure parent login to view marks, published report cards, daily attendance, and their child's details. Installable as a mobile app on Android and iPhone with no app store required.

👩‍🏫

Educator Register

Full staff register with subject and grade assignments. Drives the timetable builder — add a period and the educator dropdown only shows teachers assigned to that subject.

📋

Timetable Builder

Visual grid timetable (Mon–Fri × periods) for each class and year. Add start/end times, rooms, subjects, and educators. Copy an entire timetable to the next year in one click.

📥

Bulk Import (CSV / Excel)

Import entire year groups from Excel or CSV — useful for school transfers or new intakes. Row-level validation with a preview table before anything is committed to the database.

🎯

Grade Promotion Tool

At end of year, one click promotes all learners whose Term 4 report card shows Promoted = Yes to the next grade. Individual promotion with class assignment also available.

🗄️

POPIA Cloud Archive

Unenrolled learner records are automatically archived to Google Drive or OneDrive and retained for exactly 7 years as required by POPIA, then deleted. Fully auditable.

📈

Excel Report Writer

Export any combination of learner fields — contact lists, fee registers, class lists — to Excel with one click. Filter by grade, class, status, or date range.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Scholivra a white-label system — will parents see Scholivra branding? +
No. The system is fully white-label at every plan level. Parents only ever see your school's name, logo, and colours. "Scholivra" only appears in the admin sidebar footer in small text so staff know what platform they are on. On the Campus plan, even this is removed.
Which curriculum does my plan support? +
CAPS is included on every plan including Starter. IEB is available from the School plan upwards. Cambridge International (IGCSE/A-Level) is available on the Campus plan only. Your curriculum is selected when you set up your school and controls the subject list, grading scale, and report card format.
Is my school's data safe and POPIA compliant? +
Yes. All data is hosted on servers in South Africa. Learner records are protected with HTTPS encryption. Unenrolled learners are automatically archived to Google Drive or OneDrive for exactly 7 years (as required by POPIA) and then permanently deleted. Each school's data is in a fully isolated database — School A cannot ever see School B's data.
Can parents install Scholivra on their phone? +
Yes. The parent portal is a Progressive Web App (PWA) that installs directly from the browser — no App Store or Google Play needed. On Android, they tap "Add to Home Screen" in Chrome. On iPhone, they tap the Share button in Safari and then "Add to Home Screen". Once installed, it looks and behaves exactly like a native app.
What payment methods do you accept? +
We accept credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard), Instant EFT via PayFast, SnapScan, Mobicred, and manual bank EFT transfer. All billing is in South African Rand. Monthly subscriptions are charged automatically each month. Annual billing is a single once-off payment for 12 months at a 17% discount.
Do I need a developer to set up Scholivra? +
No. Scholivra is a fully hosted SaaS platform — there is nothing to install. You just need a web browser. After signup, you configure everything through the Admin Settings panel: school name, logo, SMTP email, grades, subjects, classes, and staff. Most school administrators complete the full setup in under 90 minutes.
Can I switch plans later? +
Yes. You can upgrade at any time from your Admin Portal — go to Administration → My Account → Upgrade. Your new limits apply immediately. You can also downgrade at the end of your billing period. Annual subscribers who downgrade receive a pro-rated credit.
