SchoolAid Parent v2 App is a mobile app that gives parents a single place to stay on top of their child's school life — from checking attendance and exam results to reading notices, tracking homework, and messaging teachers directly. It covers the full academic and administrative loop: attendance tracking, exam schedules and performance insights, a school diary for homework and timetables, and study materials with quizzes. It also handles the practical side of school life, letting parents view fee ledgers, make payments, and download receipts, alongside real-time alerts for anything that needs their attention. Account management supports multiple children under one login, so parents with more than one child in the school can switch between profiles easily. Overall, it's designed as an all-in-one communication and record-keeping bridge between the school and the home.
