Question 1

Does it handle DepEd’s official grading requirements?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Grades are computed on the 3-term (T1/T2/T3) system the new DepEd curriculum requires — not the old quarters — automatically calculated from Written Works, Performance Tasks, and Exams at the correct weights per subject type, using the official Adjusted Transmutation Table.

Question 2

Can we print official Form 138 and Form 137?

Accepted Answer

Yes, both are print- and PDF-ready with signature lines included, generated directly from the same live grades your teachers already entered — never a second, manually maintained copy that can drift out of sync.

Question 3

If a teacher is still entering grades, can parents see it too early?

Accepted Answer

No. A term’s grades stay invisible to parents and students until the teacher explicitly finalizes that term. School leadership can reopen a finalized term to fix a mistake without losing the audit trail of what changed.

Question 4

How does attendance check-in actually work?

Accepted Answer

Students and staff tap an RFID card or QR code at the gate; it’s recorded in 1–3 seconds, with a photo flash to confirm the right person checked in.

Question 5

What happens if the internet goes down during the school day?

Accepted Answer

Check-in keeps working. The kiosk caches your student roster locally, queues each tap on the device itself, and automatically syncs everything the moment the connection comes back — no lost attendance records.

Question 6

Can parents pay tuition online?

Accepted Answer

Yes — GCash, Maya, GrabPay, or card through a secure hosted checkout with instant confirmation. Families who prefer it can still submit a payment screenshot for a cashier to review by hand.

Question 7

How do parents get connected to their child’s account?

Accepted Answer

The school generates a one-time invite code or link. The parent creates their own account with it and is linked to their child automatically — no shared logins, no manual account setup per family.

Question 8

Is our school’s data isolated from other schools on the platform?

Accepted Answer

Yes, enforced at the database level on every single table — not just hidden in the app’s screens. One school’s grades, attendance, and payment records are architecturally impossible for another school to query.

Question 9

Can one person hold a combined role, like registrar-and-cashier, or teacher-and-guidance-counselor?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Small Philippine schools rarely have a separate person for every office — the system models real combined roles instead of forcing you to create a second fake account.

Question 10

Are guidance counseling notes private, even from the principal?

Accepted Answer

Yes, by design. The database itself has no way to edit or delete a guidance note once it’s saved, and no other role — not even a school admin or principal — has permission to read it.

Question 11

If a student transfers out or graduates, do we lose their records?

Accepted Answer

Never. Per DepEd Order 54, s.2016, students are archived with a status — transferred, dropped, or graduated — and the school keeps their full academic record permanently.

Question 12

Is this actually being used by a real school, or just a demo?

Accepted Answer

A real one — see the case study above. 4TH WATCH MARANATHA CHRISTIAN ACADEMY in Mindanao runs real attendance, grading, and tuition activity on Edukitor today.
