1.3 Project Goals & Objectives

Goals:
It is intended to provide an automated way of managing the school that will help us in
achieving more standards and efficient way of giving education.

1.6 Problem Statement

Using manual system to manage the records of students in the book or paper was causing
the job of the teachers more troublesome. There was a possibility to miss the record
accidently. In this way, there might be attendance or result issues. As a teacher, they need
to know every exam results of each student to know which subject is the weakness of
students. But all the students results were recorded in the register. It was harder to know
the performance of the students through manual system. If a teacher wants to see the
performance of the seniors who have completed their matriculation, then he/she can see

their record easily through the online school management system. In the manual system,
students could hide their quizzes or papers results from their parents. The automated
system makes it impossible because parents can also see their results easily. The main
problem is to manage the attendance, results, courses scheduling and to ease the teacher
workload. Our online school management system solves all these problems.

1.11 Tools and technologies used with reasoning

Programming language (Python):

It is a general purpose and high level programming language. You can use
Python for developing desktop GUI applications, websites and web
applications. Also, Python, as a high level programming language, allows
you to focus on core functionality of the application by taking care of
common programming tasks.
Django:
It is an open-source framework for backend web applications based on Python —
one of the top web development languages. Its main goals are simplicity,
flexibility, reliability, and scalability. Django has its own naming system for all
functions and components (e.g.,HTTP responses are called “views”).
As Django framework is versatile and allows developers to concentrate on
business logic instead of writing common utilities which will be taken care of
by Django itself.
Key Features of Django are:
a. Security
b. Fast, reliable and scalable services
c. Platform independent
d. Good documentation

JavaScript:
JavaScript is one of the easiest, versatile and effective languages used to
extend functionality in websites. JavaScript development services helps in on-
screen visual effects and processing and calculating data on web pages with
ease. The programming language also helps in extended functionality to
websites using third party scripts among several other handy features. Some of
its features are listed below:

a. Comparatively fast for end users

b. Provides extended functionality to webpages
c. No compilation needed
d. Easy to debug and test
e. Platform independent
f. Procedural programming capabilities
g. Provides various frameworks such as AngularJs, ReactJs, VueJs etc.

 Html5:
It is special because it makes the Internet better. It seeks to improve the way
the web works and performs, making it easier for developers to create terrific
sites and making it more efficient for users to experience those sites
regardless of the browser or platform they are using.

CSS3:
It is used with HTML to format structured content. It is responsible for font
properties, colors, text alignments, graphics, background images, tables
and other components.
