What CampusTrack manages for a private school in Douala

Re-enrolments in July and August, fee instalments, class tests and report cards every term, timetables to redo, parents to keep informed: the same tasks come back every year. CampusTrack brings them together in six modules that share the same data.

School fees, payment schedules and reminders

  • Invoicing of each family as soon as the student is enrolled, with the amount and payment schedule.
  • Payment tracking student by student, in real time, with invoices and receipts.
  • Schedules for payment in several instalments.
  • Automatic SMS and email reminders when a payment is due (SMS included in the Premium and Elite plans).
  • Collection dashboard: fees collected, unpaid amounts per class, cash-flow forecasts.

Enrolments and student records

  • A complete record for each student: identity, class, parents, documents, school history.
  • Enrolments and re-enrolments without re-entering data from one year to the next.
  • Digital student cards.

Grades, averages and report cards

  • Grade entry by teachers, checked by the school management.
  • Averages calculated automatically, report cards printable for official delivery.
  • Honour rolls, rankings and statistics for class councils.
  • Configurable grading scales and periods, from nursery to secondary.

Parent communication

  • Messaging, announcements, SMS notifications, email alerts and a parent portal.
  • On the portal (Premium and Elite), parents check the fee balance and report cards without travelling.

Mobile Money, cash, bank

Track every payment, whatever the channel

In Douala, the same family may pay the first instalment in cash at the desk, the second by MTN Mobile Money and the third by Orange Money.

The problem is not the payment method: it is knowing, at any moment, who paid what, and being able to prove it when a parent disputes it.

CampusTrack records every payment on the student's record, issues the receipt and updates the balance, whether the family paid at the desk, by bank transfer or by Mobile Money.

Three good practices for mobile payments

  1. Note the transaction reference

    On every payment: it is what settles disputes.

  2. Send the receipt the same day

    The parent has proof, the school has a trace.

  3. Remind before the due date, not after

    An SMS two or three days before the deadline costs less than an oral reminder at the school gate.

This calculation is an example, starting by default from a fictional school of 450 students at 200,000 FCFA per year. Run it with your own enrolment figures and fees.

Subscription or custom software: comparing the real cost

Custom-developed software

  • A budget in the millions of FCFA.
  • Several months of project time before you can use it.
  • Annual hosting, SMS and maintenance costs.

This route is justified for a large school group with very specific needs.

CampusTrack subscription

  • No upfront investment: you pay annually, at the displayed price.
  • Immediate start: no development wait before the start of term.
  • Updates included: the software evolves without a new project to fund.

Before you choose: 7 questions to ask any publisher

Ask them to CampusTrack as you would to any other publisher: the answers tell you whether the software will last the whole school year.

  1. 01

    Is the price displayed, and what does it include?

    Maximum number of students, SMS, training, support.

  2. 02

    Can I try it with my own classes?

    A free trial is better than a sales demonstration.

  3. 03

    Who migrates my Excel files?

    And at what price.

  4. 04

    Do the report cards respect our periods?

    And our grading scales.

  5. 05

    Does the software work with a weak connection?

    In Douala, power cuts and network fluctuations are frequent.

  6. 06

    Does my data remain mine if I stop?

    And in what form you get it back.

  7. 07

    Is there a team reachable locally?

    In the same time zone and in my language.

Getting started: from the free trial to the start of term

  1. 1

    30-day free trial

    All features, no bank card and no commitment. You can also explore the online demo.

  2. 2

    Configuration

    Classes, subjects, periods, fee grids and payment schedules.

  3. 3

    Data migration

    The team helps you import your student lists and Excel files (from 150,000 FCFA).

  4. 4

    Training

    Basic online training included in all plans, on-site training optional or included in Elite.

  5. 5

    Launch with parents

    Announcement by SMS and access to the portal.

The ideal is to start before re-enrolments, so that each family is invoiced in CampusTrack as soon as it enrols. But it is not too late during the year: you can start at the next fee instalment.
