The OpenSchool site: the line "One platform for your entire school's records", a Get Started button and a photo of students in uniform.

TESIGN TAKE

It began for Sri Lankan government schools, but the shape of it travels. The point is giving a public institution a way to run this without handing its records to a foreign commercial service.

A summary, not legal advice.

WHY IT MATTERS

Many schools still run on paper and a handful of disconnected tools, which makes information hard to find, update and share safely. OpenSchool brings that work into one system a school can host itself, keeping student and administrative data under local control.

BUILD FROM THIS

A Go and Gin backend covering academic years, grades, classes and streams, student, staff and guardian records, daily attendance, curriculum and term marks with promotions, timetable planning and publishing, in-app notifications, reports and dashboards — with separate portals for administrators, teachers, students and parents. No licence fees, no vendor lock-in.

WHO IT'S FOR

School administrators, public-sector and education bodies needing their own system, and people building education software.

CAVEATS

It is shaped around the Sri Lankan school system, so terms and marking need adapting elsewhere. With twenty-six stars it is early, and worth evaluating carefully before any real deployment.
