Roll an LMS out one grade at a time. Agree a course standard first, give teachers a template, start with material and assessment before live lessons, and only then ask leadership to rely on the reporting.
The most common school rollout failure is fifty teachers structuring courses fifty different ways. Decide what a course looks like — how modules map to units, where material goes, how assessments are named — before anyone builds one.
Count the classes that must run live at the same time, not the total per week. That number, plus your student and teacher counts, decides which plan tier fits. School plans exist because schools consistently need more rooms, staff accounts and storage than smaller academies.
Start with one grade and two willing teachers. Publish material and one assessment. Add live lessons in week three. Expand grade by grade, using the first grade's courses as the template.
Reporting only changes outcomes when someone reads it on a schedule. Put course completion and assessment performance on a monthly leadership agenda from the first term, so the data shapes staffing and support decisions.
Create your workspace, invite your teachers and publish your first course. Start on a free plan and upgrade when your numbers grow.
