What Boarding Schools Need
A boarding school is a school and a home. Besides academics, it must manage rooms, meals, pocket money, health, guardians and parents who are far away and want assurance.
NexoraEDU combines the academic side with hostel rooms and allotments, a canteen wallet, health records, a helpdesk and the parent portal, so wardens, teachers and the office use one system.
Challenges and How NexoraEDU Handles Them
Hostel rooms
Rooms, beds and occupancy with a full-room warning.
Canteen wallet
Prepaid wallet for snacks and tuck shop.
Health records
Health notes for the warden and nurse.
Helpdesk
Parents raise requests and see replies.
Fees
Tuition, hostel and transport charges on one ledger.
Parent portal
Attendance, fees, results, notices and wallet balance.
Care and Control in One Place
Allot each boarder to a room, keep health and guardian notes in the profile, and let parents track fees, results and wallet balance from far away.

School Software for Boarding & Residential Schools – FAQ
Yes. You create blocks and rooms with bed counts, allot boarders, and see occupancy. The software warns before you allot a student to a room that is already full. Keep allotments updated when students move, because occupancy is calculated from them.
The canteen module works with a prepaid student wallet. The office tops up the wallet, the counter deducts purchases, and parents can see the balance in the portal. Online top-up is not included in this version, so parents deposit through the school office or an agreed channel.
No. Gate pass, leave-out approvals and pick-up authorisation are not part of this version. The visitor register logs visitors and prints a pass, but it is not a gate control. If these workflows are essential, tell us in the demo and we can discuss custom development.
Yes. Health records store notes such as height, weight and conditions the school should know. Access depends on roles, so only authorised staff should see it. Treat this as sensitive information and review who has access.
Yes. Parents log in to the portal to see attendance, fees, results, notices and wallet balance, and raise requests through the helpdesk. WhatsApp messages from the school are click-to-send, so staff send them manually. There is no mobile app in this version.
