Streams and subject combinations
A named stream is a real thing in the data model, not a text field. Students carry the subject set their combination implies, and results follow it.
Akadesk Academic OS
Secondary school, properly organised
Class streams, subject combinations, departmental staffing, timetables and external exam entries — the parts of a secondary school that a primary-school system was never built to hold.

What you get
Everything a school runs on
Six capabilities that cover the working week, not a feature list assembled to look long.
Departments that own their subjects
Heads of department manage their own staff, syllabus coverage and score entry, so the exam office stops being the bottleneck.
Timetables without the clashes
Build period-by-period against real staff availability and room capacity; conflicts surface as you place them, not on Monday morning.
Terminal, mock and external exams
Continuous assessment, terminal exams and mocks compute separately and combine on the report sheet. External entries for your national examining bodies are tracked per student.
Results with real analysis
Position in class and in stream, subject means, pass rates by department, and a term-on-term view of any student the form master needs to talk about.
Your own site, your own domain
Each school gets a public website — admissions, departments, news, results checker — on a subdomain or a domain the school already owns.
How it works
Three steps to running your school
Set up the structure
Classes, streams, departments and subject combinations. This is the part that makes everything else work.
Staff the timetable
Assign teachers to subjects and streams, then build the timetable against their real availability.
Run the term
Score entry by department, terminal results, report sheets, and external exam entries — all from the same records.
“Building the timetable used to take the deputy head two weeks and a wall of cards. The clash list now tells him what is wrong while he is still placing periods.”

Questions
Before you ask
How are subject combinations handled?
A combination is a named set of subjects attached to a stream. Enrolling a student in the stream gives them the subjects, and score entry follows automatically.
Can we use our existing domain?
Yes. Point the domain at us and the school's public site serves from it, with a certificate issued automatically.
Does it cover external exams?
It tracks entries, candidate numbers and results for your national examining bodies per student. It does not submit to them for you.
Can heads of department enter scores?
That is the intended workflow. Permissions are per-role and per-department, so a HOD sees their subjects and no one else's.
