Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about Managira
Getting Started
What is Managira?
Managira is an all-in-one school management platform - admissions, attendance, grading and report cards, promotion, billing, transportation, staff management, and parent/guardian communication all run from one system, for individual schools and school districts alike, instead of stitching together separate tools for each job.
Is Managira an all-in-one school management solution, or just one tool among several?
All-in-one, by design. Admissions, student and guardian records, attendance, assessments and grading, report cards and merit sheets, promotion between terms, staff/employee management, school transportation, billing, announcements, the public school website, and Docs/Sheets are all part of the same platform - a school runs its full administration in Managira rather than combining it with separate, disconnected tools.
Who can use Managira?
Schools, hubs, administrators, teachers, guardians, and education oversight teams can use Managira.
How do I register my school?
Go to school registration, complete setup, then follow the User Documentation guides for full onboarding.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Trial availability and length depend on your current platform settings.
How do I contact support?
Use the Help Center or email info@managira.com.
Educators & Admins
Can staff update student information?
Yes, if their role and permissions allow it.
Can I customize my school branding?
Yes. You can update logo, theme colors, and related personalization settings.
Is there an analytics dashboard?
Yes. Managira includes dashboards for attendance, academic, and operational insights.
Hub Management
What is a Managira Hub?
A Hub lets one organization - a school district, a network of schools, or an education oversight body - manage and support multiple member schools from a single central workspace, while each school keeps running its own day-to-day operations independently.
Does Managira support school districts?
Yes. Managira is built for individual schools as well as school districts and multi-school networks - a district oversight team can supervise, support, and coordinate every member school from one Hub dashboard, without taking over each school's own daily administration.
Can a school district monitor multiple schools from one place?
Yes. A district's Hub dashboard gives central visibility across every member school - coordinating operations and oversight district-wide - while each school retains its own independent records, staff, and students.
Can hubs manage billing for member schools?
Yes. In hub-managed setups - including school districts - billing can be controlled centrally across every member school from the Hub.
Billing & Subscription
Can I change my subscription plan?
Yes. Plan changes are available in account billing/settings.
What happens if a payment fails?
You receive notifications and can retry with an active payment method.
What payment methods are supported?
Supported methods depend on your configured payment provider and school settings.
How do I cancel a subscription?
Use account billing/settings to cancel according to your billing cycle.
Parents & Guardians
How do guardians view their child's records?
Guardians sign in through the Guardian Portal to view assigned student records.
Can guardians submit concerns?
Yes. Guardians can submit concerns or feedback from the portal workflows made available by the school.
Security & Access

Yes. Managira uses encrypted transport and role-based access controls.
How do I reset my password?
Use Forgot Password on the login page, then follow the reset link sent to your email.

Mira AI Assistant
What is Mira?
Mira is Managira's built-in AI assistant for school staff. It looks up records, drafts messages, generates reports, and carries out real school-management actions - creating students, managing enrollment, scheduling promotions, and more - through plain-language conversation, entirely inside the Managira platform.
What can Mira actually do?
Mira covers admissions and student records, attendance, assessments and grading, report cards and merit sheets, enrollment, promotion, employees, transportation, announcements, the school website, and Docs/Sheets - both looking things up and making real changes, not just answering questions about the app.
Is Mira accurate and safe to use for real school data?
Every action Mira takes runs through the same real, per-user permission checks as the Managira app itself - never guessed from a role name alone - and is scoped strictly to the caller's own school. Every change Mira makes is recorded in the school's Activity Logs, tagged as done via Mira, so nothing happens invisibly.
Will Mira delete or change data without asking?
No. Any destructive or irreversible action - deleting a student, removing an enrollment, deleting a class - always warns first and only proceeds after the user's explicit confirmation in a later message. Creating or adding non-destructive records happens directly once all the needed details are known.
How is Mira different from a general-purpose AI chatbot?
Mira isn't a generic chatbot bolted onto Managira - it's built directly into the platform with real, working access to a school's own live data and the same account permissions each staff member already has, so it can actually complete school-administration tasks (not just describe how to do them) inside the tool the school already uses every day.
Does Mira work across every part of Managira?
Yes. Mira spans Admissions, Students & Guardians, Attendance, Assessments & Report Cards, Enrollment & Promotion, Employees, Transportation, Announcements, the public School Website, and Docs/Sheets - one assistant across the whole platform rather than a narrow single-feature bot.
How do I turn Mira on for my school?
Activate Mira from Integrations once your school is set up in Managira, or contact Managira to see it first via a live demo.
