The complete walkthrough
How SchoolConnect works, end to end
From the first form field to a school website families love — here is the honest, step-by-step journey.
Phase 1 — Setup (about 10 minutes)
The onboarding wizard builds your school with you
- 1Create your administrator account — email and a strong password, verified in place.
- 2Tell us about the school: name, type, location, and what makes it special. Your answers become the website's about story.
- 3Claim your web address with the live availability checker — suggestions appear the moment a name is taken.
- 4Choose your plan with live pricing in your currency and any discount code applied transparently.
- 5Activate with the secure in-page checkout — your subscription starts immediately, your website goes live at once.
Phase 2 — Content (your first week)
Fill the site with the things families ask for
- 1Upload your logo and cover photo — branding carries across every page automatically.
- 2Add your programs and classes; they render as browsable pages on the website.
- 3Publish your first announcements and events with the rich text editor.
- 4Seed the FAQ — every answer also feeds the AI assistant so parents get instant replies.
- 5Introduce your leadership team with photos and roles.
Phase 3 — Daily running
Admissions, enquiries, results — from one console
- 1Applications arrive with fees paid; review and respond with templates.
- 2Enquiries land in the inbox — answer once, reuse forever.
