Problems
What Spanworth replaces.
Disconnected registers for fees, attendance, timetable, and scholarships. The live record that replaces them.
Four operational messes
Each problem ends on a capability that already runs. Open the mess, follow the flow, then step into the product.
Problem 01
Fee reconciliation
The student says they paid. The bank book sits in another file. Accounts reconcile the two in a spreadsheet.Problem 02
Attendance registers
Theory in one register, practical in another, and the timetable somewhere else. The clerk rebuilds the day before anyone can trust the export.Problem 03
Timetable changes
An edit spreads through paper and chat. The day the college teaches is whichever copy arrived last.Problem 04
Scholarship tracking
The fee is calculated, then someone subtracts the scholarship in a sheet. The penalty is another note. What the student owes is whichever number was edited last.
