School CRM Software

School CRM Software for Admissions and Parent Engagement

Every school year begins the same way: hundreds of admission enquiries arrive by phone, walk-in, website form, WhatsApp and referral — and most of them are never followed up properly. By the time the session starts, a large share of interested parents have simply gone elsewhere because nobody called back. HamaraCRM® School CRM fixes exactly that. It captures every admission enquiry, tracks it through counselling and campus visit to enrolment, and keeps parents engaged with structured communication after the child joins.

Built for Every Kind of Education Institution

• Schools — CBSE, ICSE, State Board, IB and international schools
• Preschools and play schools — high-volume enquiries and short decision cycles
• Colleges and junior colleges — stream-wise admissions and counselling
• Universities and deemed institutions — programme-wise enquiry funnels
• Coaching and training institutes — see our dedicated Coaching Institute CRM
• Skill academies, sports and arts schools — batch and season-based enrolment
• Multi-campus education groups — several branches under one management

The Admission Enquiry Funnel, Properly Tracked

An admission enquiry is not a single event — it is a sequence, and schools lose parents at every step. HamaraCRM® tracks each stage so nothing is left to memory or a paper register:

1. Enquiry captured — from website form, phone call, walk-in, WhatsApp or an education portal
2. Qualified — class sought, board, locality, sibling status, source of enquiry
3. Counselling scheduled — appointment booked with the admission counsellor
4. Campus visit done — visit recorded with counsellor notes
5. Application submitted — form and documents tracked
6. Admission confirmed — converted, with fee plan attached
7. Follow-up on drop-offs — parents who went cold get a structured win-back sequence

Every stage is visible on one dashboard, so the principal or admissions head can see exactly where the funnel is leaking this season.

What Schools Use HamaraCRM® For

• Student and parent records — complete profile with parent contacts, class, board, siblings, address and custom fields.
• Admission enquiry capture — embed enquiry forms on your school website; every submission lands in the CRM instantly.
• Counselling and campus-visit scheduling — appointment scheduling with automated reminders to parents.
• Fee instalment reminders — track fee plans and send due-date reminders to parents over WhatsApp.
• Parent communication — announcements, holiday notices, event invitations and reminders via WhatsApp Business API.
• Admission campaigns — seasonal campaigns to past enquiries, siblings of current students and referral lists.
• Parent queries and grievances — routed and resolved through the ticketing system instead of getting lost in a staff inbox.
• Counsellor performance — which counsellor converts the most enquiries, and how fast they respond.
• Multi-campus reporting — branch-wise enquiries, admissions and revenue with multi-location support.

Where a School CRM Fits Alongside Your ERP

A school CRM and a school ERP solve different problems. Your ERP handles academics — timetables, examinations, report cards, attendance registers and payroll. HamaraCRM® handles relationships: who enquired, who was followed up, who visited, who converted, which parents need a reminder, and which queries are still open. Most schools run both, and the CRM is what protects the admission revenue that funds everything else.

Multi-Campus and Education Groups

Education groups running several schools or campuses get branch-wise separation with consolidated oversight. Each campus manages its own enquiries, counsellors, students and fee follow-ups; the group management sees enquiry volume, conversion rate, admission numbers and counsellor performance across all campuses in a single dashboard — and can compare them side by side.

Reports for Principals and Admission Heads

• Enquiry volume by source — website, walk-in, referral, campaign, portal
• Stage-wise funnel: enquiry → counselling → visit → application → admission
• Conversion rate by counsellor, by class and by campus
• Lost-enquiry reasons and win-back opportunities
• Fee due and collection follow-up status
• Open parent queries and resolution time
