Every enquiry with its source, stage and next follow-up date.

Every school year starts with admissions. In Patashala360, school management software for Indian schools, a joined enquiry becomes a student record, gets an admission number and its first fees in the same school ERP, with nothing typed twice.

How an admission works

  1. Record the enquiry

    Note the child, the parent's mobile, the class sought and where the family heard about you.

  2. Follow up on time

    Move the enquiry through stages such as contacted, visit scheduled and documents pending, with a follow-up date and comments the whole team can read.

  3. Keep the papers

    Add photos of the documents the family brings, so they are ready on the day of admission.

  4. Admit in one step

    When the family joins, the enquiry becomes a student in the chosen class with an admission number.

  5. Fees from the first month

    The admission fee and the class fees reach the child's fee record, for the months the child attends.

Who uses it

Admission team

Each enquiry is given to a member of the team, and their follow-ups are visible to the principal.

Correspondent

Admissions: common questions

Can we see which source brings the most admissions?

Yes. The admission report shows enquiries and joinings by source, so you know whether walk-ins, referrals, the website or field visits work best for your school.

Do we have to type the details again when a child joins?

No. A joined enquiry becomes a student in the class you choose, carrying the details already recorded.

Can several staff work on enquiries?

Yes. Each enquiry can be given to a member of the admission team, and their follow-ups and results are visible to the principal.

Is the admission fee charged to continuing students?

No. It is a one-time fee charged only to new admissions, including a child who joins from an enquiry.

Can we use our own admission number format?

Yes. Choose a prefix and numbers are given in order with no duplicates, or type admission numbers by hand.
