ScholaRise Calendar

The year ahead

Calendar.

The whole academic session in one place — exams, holidays, events and milestones — and every change approved before it reaches a single parent.

II The argument

A school's year shouldn't be published by whoever has the spreadsheet open.

The wall-planner problem

Most schools plan the year in a shared sheet and a wall planner that disagree with each other by March. An exam date moves and nobody tells the parents; a holiday gets added twice; a coordinator publishes a circular the head hadn't actually signed off. ScholaRise treats the academic year as one calendar with a spine: every exam, holiday, event and term milestone is typed and dated in one place, and nothing reaches a parent until it has climbed the approval levels the school itself defined. The planning and the governance are the same screen — so what's published is what was approved.

What it does
  • One calendar per session

    Exams, holidays, activities, administrative dates and term milestones live on a single calendar — typed by category, colour-coded, and kept to exactly one calendar per branch per academic session.

  • Year, month and timeline

    Read the session three ways — a year overview of every month at a glance, a month grid you can work in, and a flat timeline — without re-entering a single date.

  • Drag to reschedule

    Move a date the way you'd move it on a wall planner — drag an entry to a new day, or drag-select a span for a multi-day event — and the calendar updates the entry underneath.

  • Multi-level approval

    Nothing publishes on a whim. A submitted calendar climbs an ordered hierarchy of approval levels — each with its own approver roster — moving Draft → Pending → Approved, level by level.

  • Request changes, in thread

    An approver can approve, request changes or reject — with a comment thread between submitter and reviewers, and a rejection comment required when the branch says it must be.

  • Delegation when away

    Hand approval authority to a delegate for a fixed window — a leave, a tour — and every action is logged against who really stood in, so the audit trail stays honest.

  • Entry notifications

    Schedule an email for an entry — on the day, a day before, a week ahead — to chosen staff and any custom address, with the send time computed in IST from the entry's own date.

  • Working-day maths

    The calendar counts itself — working, teaching, holiday and exam days across the whole session and broken down per term — so a planned year is also a counted one.

How it fits
  • 01 / 04

    Kept to one branch, one session. There is exactly one calendar per branch per academic session — so a multi-campus trust plans each campus's year on its own, and last year's calendar stays last year's, never bleeding into this one.

  • 02 / 04

    Linked to the records you already keep. Holidays, term milestones and events sync in from the modules that own them — so a date entered once shows up on the calendar, instead of being re-typed and quietly drifting out of step.

  • 03 / 04

    On the same web, iOS and Android apps. A coordinator drafts the term from a desk; the principal clears a held event from a phone between classes. One login, one calendar — no separate planning tool to chase.

  • 04 / 04

    Within reach of Sol, the AI agent. The same assistant that answers questions across the school can read the calendar too — a quiet way to ask what's coming up or what's still awaiting approval, not a fourth screen to learn.

Why it's built this way

A calendar parents can trust is one nobody could change alone. The approval is the feature.

Honestly compared vs Google Calendar

Google Calendar schedules a person. A school schedules itself.

GCal is unbeatable for your own day. A school calendar is a different animal — it has to be approved, and it has to reach parents.

Google Calendar

  • Anyone with edit access just adds an event — no sign-off.
  • Parents see it only if you share and they subscribe.
  • Holidays and exams live separately from the school's systems.
  • No record of who changed what, when.

ScholaRise Academic calendar

  • Events are drafted and approved through levels before they're real.
  • Published straight to the parent app the moment it's approved.
  • In the academic context — tied to terms, exams and attendance.
  • Every change tracked, like the rest of the platform.

Keep GCal for your meetings. Run the school's year where the school can see it.
