Tuition fee reminders for parents, without the office phoning

At 9am Dhaka time on the 15th of each month, ClassTablet checks the current month's bills. For every student whose fee is still unpaid, or whose submitted payment was rejected, the linked parents get a reminder in their inbox and by email, with the class, the month and the amount. The student gets their own reminder too.

How it is done today

In most coaching centres, news of an unpaid fee travels home by word of mouth: 'tell your father to pay'. Often it never arrives. Then the office has to phone the parent, which is awkward for everyone, and families who already paid sometimes get the call by mistake.

How it works

  1. 1

    Unpaid bills are found on the 15th

    At 9am on the 15th of each month, ClassTablet checks the month's open bills. Only bills that are unpaid or whose payment was rejected are picked.

  2. 2

    Parents are told

    For each unpaid bill, the parents linked to the student get a reminder in their ClassTablet inbox and by email, saying which class, which month and how much is due.

  3. 3

    The student hears too

    At the same time the student gets an in-app notice and a push alert. The message reaches home from two sides instead of depending on one person remembering.

  4. 4

    Families who paid are left alone

    If a bill's payment is approved or waiting to be checked, its parents get no reminder, so families who paid on time are never chased by mistake.

What runs on its own, what stays in your hands

What happens automatically

On the 15th of each month the system finds the unpaid bills and reminds those students' parents in their inbox and by email. Nobody presses send.

What you control

Your payment checks decide who is reminded: approve a payment and that family isn't chased; reject it and they are. Parents can switch payment reminders off.

Frequently asked questions

Do parent reminders go by SMS?

No. Parents' fee reminders currently go to their ClassTablet inbox and by email. We don't claim SMS reminders; an admin can send an SMS separately if needed.

Can we choose the reminder date?

No, the date is fixed: the current month's reminder goes at 9am on the 15th. If last month's fee is still unpaid, a separate overdue alert goes on the 5th of the next month.

Can parents turn these reminders off?

Yes. Parents can switch payment reminders off in their notification settings. While off, they get no fee reminders, but the student still gets their own.

Which plans include parent reminders?

Parents need an account, so this works on the Standard and Custom plans, which include the parent portal. Standard costs ৳20 per student per month.
