School management for Cambridge schools. Checkpoint through A Level.
A Cambridge school runs a long ladder — Primary, Lower Secondary and Checkpoint, then IGCSE, then AS and A Level — with coursework running alongside external papers the whole way. The record has to hold both without confusing them.

Internal work and external results, kept separate
This is the distinction Cambridge schools most often lose in software. Coursework, mocks and internal assessments are yours and live in the system as they happen. External Cambridge results arrive on release and land on the student record as results, not as another set of marks in the gradebook.
Keeping them apart means a predicted grade stays a judgement rather than drifting into an average, and a student's file reads honestly years later when someone asks for a transcript.
Across the Cambridge ladder
- Cambridge Primary and Lower Secondary progress, with Checkpoint scores recorded against the student.
- IGCSE grading, including subjects reported on the numeric scale as well as the letter scale.
- Coursework marks tracked per component, with the weighting each paper carries.
- AS and A Level tracking across the two years, including where a student cashes in.
- Predicted grades per subject, released for university applications when the school chooses.
- Mock schedules and result cards held separately from anything predicted.
Exam season logistics
Series after series, the same jobs: seating plans, invigilation rosters, candidate photo identification, timetables that have to reach students and parents without twenty phone calls.
All of it runs off records already in the system, and the parent-facing half goes out on WhatsApp in the same flow as everything else.
The office side
- Fees across Indian gateways, with foreign-currency billing where families need it.
- Admissions with entrance assessment scheduling.
- Transport, boarding and library.
- Staff records, payroll, PF, TDS and Form 16.
Frequently asked
Does Inkwelly handle Cambridge Checkpoint?
Yes. Primary and Lower Secondary Checkpoint scores sit on the student record and carry forward, so a student arriving at IGCSE has a history rather than a fresh start.
How do coursework and external results stay distinct?
They're separate records by design. Coursework, mocks and internal assessment are entered by your teachers through the year; external results are imported on release. A predicted grade is its own field again, so it never quietly becomes an average.
We report some IGCSE subjects on 9-1 and others A*-G.
Both scales are supported and can run side by side across subjects in the same cohort, which is the position most Cambridge schools are actually in.
Can we bill international families in another currency?
Yes, alongside rupee billing for domestic families on the same fee structure.
Parent communication for families outside India?
WhatsApp is the default in India. For families abroad, the same content goes by email, so nobody gets a thinner version of the message because of where they live.
How quickly can we go live?
Go-live can be the next working day. You pick the date; we don't need months of parallel running to get there. Bringing across years of historical records — old marks, past fee ledgers, archived certificates — runs on its own track afterwards and doesn't hold up day one.
What does Inkwelly cost?
₹49–₹199 per student per year, flat at any school size — no enrolment slabs and no per-module upsell. A 500-student school on the middle plan is about ₹49,500 a year. Migration, training and setup are ₹0. The only external costs are WhatsApp message fees and your payment gateway's transaction charge, both billed at cost.
