However complete a management system may be, it does nothing on its own: someone has to configure it, keep it up to date, train the users and answer the front office on a Tuesday morning. Eduka™ assumes that person already works for you. A great many private schools, in every country, have no such post — and no intention of creating one. Scoliom approaches the problem from the other end: we publish the Scoliom Scolarité platform, we host it and we run it for you, under a single contract.
The real question is not “which solution is the most complete”, but “who will keep it running in February, when the front office is swamped”. Depending on the answer, the right choice changes entirely.
Eduka™ is a rich, well-proven solution whose fine-grained configuration renders real service to school networks and large institutions: those with a project manager, a digital lead and time to devote to setting it up. Where those resources exist, it is an excellent tool, and we make no claim to compete on that ground.
You are not taking on yet another tool to administer: we publish the platform, we host it in the European Union, we commission it with you, we train your teams and we then answer their requests. One monthly fee, one point of contact, and no technical post to recruit.
The administration side covers the whole student life cycle — record, enrolment, re-enrolment, billing, documents, marks — and it is included in the plan: no licence to buy, no separate subscription line. It is designed for a front office of two or three people, not for an IT department.
Grades and report cards are native, from the Scoliom Logiciel plan onwards: teachers enter the marks, averages and ranks are worked out, and the PDF report card is published in the family space. Is your team attached to Pronote™ and EDT™ (Index Éducation), or to Edumoov™ in primary? We install them, update them and sort out any problems, and your PDF report cards land in the same family space: a single contract for administration and for teaching alike.
Where an ERP aims for exhaustiveness, we aim to cut down the number of clicks. Every screen below matches a real front-office task, usable in the very first week, with no three-hundred-page manual.
The lists you already have, with nothing retyped.
We import your spreadsheets or the export from the software you use today: columns are recognised automatically, in Latin script as in Arabic script, and the import runs one way only, into Scoliom. A complete student record, a history kept from year to year, siblings linked to one another, plus search and export.
From the single file to the annual campaign.
A file taken at the desk or filed online by the family; then, every spring, the re-enrolment campaign: pre-filled files, the next year group proposed, reminders for those running late — the detail is on the Enrolment & re-enrolment module.
A list of documents, ticked off one by one.
You define the documents expected for each type of file; each one is marked received, then in order, and the file is only approved once nothing is missing. A family document approved once counts for every child enrolled.
The file filled in from the parent's phone.
The guardian receives a secure link or a code, photographs their documents, follows the progress of the file and receives a confirmation at every step. That means far fewer trips to the desk, and a front office spending less time on the telephone.
Instalment plans, numbered receipts, arrears in plain sight.
Fees set for each year group, an instalment plan generated as soon as the file is approved, the sibling reduction applied automatically, numbered receipts, and outstanding balances followed student by student and class by class. See the school billing module.
Certificates and attestations, in French or in Arabic.
School certificates, attestations and leaving documents produced as PDFs on your school's letterhead, one at a time or for a whole class, each carrying a number in the school's register and a QR code for checking.
Batch emails and WhatsApp™ messages, prepared for you.
You target a year group, a class or only the incomplete files, then read the message over before sending: invitations, reminders about missing documents, start-of-term information. Nothing goes out on its own, and messages leave through your school's own channels.
Teaching and administrative staff in the same place.
Staff records with role, contact details and documents, subjects and classes assigned to each teacher, employment attestations generated — and access by role, so that everyone sees only what concerns them.
Who gets on which bus, at which stop.
Vehicles and their number of seats, routes and their stops in order, the driver attached to the transport, and each pupil assigned to a stop against the vehicle capacity. The family reads its child’s stop in its own space, without calling the school office. See the transport module
Transport, the canteen, and whatever you configure.
Each family subscribes to the school’s services, with their rate and their billing logic. The amount joins their instalment plan along with the rest of the fees, with nothing kept separately. The canteen here is a subscribed and billed service: no menus, no meals, no stock.
Your data, recoverable by you.
The school triggers a backup of its own data from the platform — before a delicate operation, at the end of a term — and can restore from the one it chooses. A school’s backup holds only its own data.

A factual reading, without caricature. Neither is better in absolute terms: it all depends on your student numbers, the resources you have in-house and the time you are willing to devote to it. For your meetings with suppliers, our guide to choosing school management software sets out the questions to ask each of them, Scoliom included.

Eduka™: based on the publisher's public price list as read on 10 and 11 August 2026, which may have changed since. Eduka™ is a trademark of its publisher.
Scoliom covers the daily administrative work, included in your contract, with grades and report cards included, and takes charge of Pronote, EDT or Edumoov if your school is attached to them. One point of contact for administration and for teaching alike, a monthly fee that stays fixed for the whole school year, and a school that runs without technical meetings. Eduka™ keeps all its value for a network that is already equipped; for an independent school, our model asks far less of you.

Yes, provided you compare like with like. Eduka™ is a piece of software: you subscribe to it, and then someone in your school configures it, keeps it alive and trains the users. Scoliom is a service: we publish the platform, we host it, we commission it with you, and we then run it — one contract, one monthly fee, one point of contact. For a school with no IT department, the gap widens above all after commissioning, when the tool has to be kept alive year after year. The administration side is called Scoliom Scolarité.
Yes, natively, from the Scoliom Logiciel plan onwards. Teachers enter their assessments with a scale and a weighting; the platform works out weighted averages, rank and remarks, then publishes the PDF report card on the school's letterhead in the family space, where parents also follow marks as the term goes on. If your team is attached to Pronote™ and EDT™ (Index Éducation) for secondary, or to Edumoov™ for primary, we deploy them and maintain them: your PDF report cards join the same family space, and a single contract covers administration and teaching alike. The school calendar, included in every plan, is published to families from the family space.
No. Scoliom Scolarité is published, hosted and maintained by us: it is part of the monthly fee, with no licence to buy and no extra subscription line for students, enrolment or billing. The amount depends on your student numbers, your country and the scope you choose, never on a per-student basis: it is set out in a written quote after the remote assessment, and stays fixed for the whole school year.
No, and that is precisely the point. Commissioning is done by us: import of your existing lists, configuration of year groups, classes and fees, training for the front office and the leadership team, then support by ticket. A school of two hundred students and a school group of two thousand alike use Scoliom without recruiting a technical profile — that is what sets a platform run for you apart from software you have to administer yourself.
