School Management Software for Schools in Karnataka
Karnataka has schools of every kind: Kannada-medium and English-medium State Board schools preparing students for the SSLC examination, CBSE and ICSE schools in the cities, and educational trusts that run several institutions across a district. SchoolAdminCE is made in Bangalore (Bengaluru) by MarvelSoft, which has built school software since 2009. It brings admissions, fee collection, exams, attendance and messages to parents into one system, used in the cloud or installed on a computer in your school office.
We serve Karnataka schools remotely from our Bangalore office: onboarding, training and support are all delivered online and by phone.
SchoolAdminCE runs in the cloud or installed on a computer in your school. The Free edition covers up to 50 students; larger schools choose the Solo or Offline licence or a Cloud plan. Compare editions and prices.

Boards and curriculum
Schools in Karnataka follow KSEAB (Karnataka State Board), CBSE and ICSE. SchoolAdminCE prints report cards in CBSE, ICSE and State Board formats, with term-wise and consolidated templates and CGPA. Every template can be changed in OpenOffice, so you can match the layout your board or your management expects without a programmer.
Government portals and compliance
Schools in Karnataka report to these government systems:
- SATS. The Student Achievement Tracking System, the Karnataka education department’s record of every student, used for admissions, promotions and transfer certificates.
- UDISE+. The national school database that every school updates each year.
SchoolAdminCE does not submit data to these portals for you. It keeps your student and staff records in one place, and every report exports to Excel and PDF, which makes it quicker to prepare what a portal asks for.

Questions from schools in Karnataka
Where is MarvelSoft based, and do you visit schools in Karnataka?

Does SchoolAdminCE print report cards for Karnataka State Board, CBSE and ICSE schools?
Yes. Report cards are available in State Board, CBSE and ICSE formats, with term-wise and consolidated templates. You can also change a template in OpenOffice to match your own school’s layout.
Is SchoolAdminCE connected to SATS?
No. SchoolAdminCE does not send data to SATS or UDISE+. It keeps student and staff records in one place and exports reports to Excel and PDF, which helps when your staff prepare those entries.
Our school is in a taluk with unreliable internet. Can we still use it?
