Questions schools ask
Before you try it
Which grades does it cover?
Grade R to Grade 12, across the Foundation, Intermediate, Senior and FET phases, with four terms.
Does it work out year marks?
Yes. School-based assessment and the examination are weighted per phase, and each learner is checked against the promotion requirements at year end.
Can it import bank payments?
Yes. Open the CSV from online banking and each payment is matched to its learner by reference, in rand.
Will it withhold a report for unpaid fees?
No. A report card may never be withheld, and Msingi follows that rule.
Does it need the internet?
No. Msingi runs on the school’s own computer. The internet is only needed for updates, off-site backups and the optional cloud version.
