Teacher App Guide

Complete guide for teachers to use the School Orbit app — attendance, homework, marks, gatepass, syllabus and more.

Teachers log in with the username and password created from the dashboard. The app is role-based — it automatically shows only the features the teacher has permission to access.

Note: The Leave tab only appears if the teacher has leave management permission enabled in their role.

Permissions Control What You See

Not all teachers see all features. The app shows only what the teacher's role allows. If a feature is missing, ask the school admin to enable that permission in Roles & Permissions.
