Everything in one place

Built for the way activity schools actually work

Not generic business software. StudioKit is purpose-built for independent UK activity schools — from your first student to your hundredth.

👥
Student management
Add students, assign classes, set term rates and track returning vs new enrolments. Everything in one place per student.
🧾
Smart invoicing
Generate invoices by term in one tap. Multi-class discounts, week overrides, automatic payment reminders and one-click CSV export.
📅
Visual timetable
Week and day views with studio columns, colour-coded by room. Clash detection built in. Tap any empty slot to add a class instantly.
👪
Parent portal
Every parent gets their own portal to view invoices, pay, see the timetable, festival schedule and competition results. Installs as an app.
🏆
Festivals & competitions
Track entries, import schedules by photo or PDF, record results and share medals with parents the moment they're entered.
📊
Analytics
Revenue by term, class popularity, medal tallies, top performers. For teachers and parents — know your school at a glance.
💳
Payment tracking
Parents confirm bank transfers in the portal. Teachers confirm receipt. Export to CSV for Sage, Xero or your accountant.
⭐
Class recommendations
Suggest new classes to parents with a personal message. Set follow-up reminders. Parents can request enrolment directly from their portal.
👨‍🏫
Multi-teacher logins
Invite teachers by email with module-level permissions. Non-owners only see what they need — settings and billing stay private.
🔔
Push notifications
Notify parents the moment an event is created, cancelled, or a result is entered. Teachers get notified when a payment is confirmed or an enrolment is requested. Straight to their phone — no email needed.
