Welcome to SA3
SA3 is a web-based school management platform built specifically for international schools. It replaces the patchwork of tools that most schools rely on today -- handwritten mark sheets, shared spreadsheets, WhatsApp group chats for grade updates, manual report card printing, and the risk of data being lost, inconsistent, or inaccessible when it matters most.
With SA3, every piece of academic data lives in one place. Staff enter scores on their phones or laptops, reports are generated automatically in PDF format, and administrators have full oversight of the school's academic activity in real time.

What SA3 Replaces
| Old way | SA3 replaces it with |
|---|---|
| Mark sheets and exercise books | Digital score entry with automatic grade calculation |
| Shared spreadsheets (Excel, Google Sheets) | A centralised database with role-based access |
| WhatsApp grade sharing | A secure staff portal where information flows through proper channels |
| Manually typed or printed report cards | Automatically generated PDF reports per student |
| Informal verbal handovers | Structured teacher remarks stored per student, per term |
| No audit trail for score changes | A complete, tamper-proof log of every edit |
User Roles
SA3 uses a role-based access system. Every staff member is assigned one or more roles, and those roles determine what they can see and do.
| Role | What they can do |
|---|---|
| Admin | Full access to everything. Configures the school, manages all users, creates assessments, finalizes and generates reports. |
| Principal | School-wide view of all classes and results. Can finalize report groups, generate report cards, and write principal remarks. |
| Vice Principal | Similar to the Principal, with permissions scoped to their designated area of responsibility. |
| HOD (Head of Department) | Department-level oversight. Can view classes and assessments within their department. |
| Teacher | Sees only the classes they are assigned to. Enters scores and writes class teacher remarks. |
| Teaching Assistant | Can view assigned classes and enter assignment scores, but cannot modify final grades or close assessments. |
A staff member can hold more than one role. For example, a teacher who also serves as a Head of Department would have both the Teacher and HOD roles active simultaneously.
