The school that went quiet
Calls go unanswered, the term review keeps slipping, and nobody marks it as a signal.
PARTNER DESK · FOR SCHOOL NETWORKS
The email says “we won’t be renewing”. It’s the first warning anyone logged.
Send your partner list and renewal dates. In three days your relationship managers see every school’s health in parts — weighted by your priorities — and which quiet ones need a call this week.

WHAT THE NUMBERS SAY
Schools rarely fail suddenly. Networks just see it late.

SOUND FAMILIAR?
Partner health lives in your RMs’ heads and phones.
Each RM tracks visits in a diary, pilots in a sheet and renewals in memory. When an RM leaves, the relationships leave too — and head office learns a school is struggling from its renewal email, or its silence.
The RM who left
Forty relationships and one WhatsApp history, gone with the handset.
The league-table trap
Rank schools on raw results, and partners learn to hide their problems.
HOW IT WORKS
See every partner early, in parts, with their consent.
Software watches the signals; your RMs build the relationships. No school ever sees another school’s data.
1Agree
Each school chooses what it shares — usage, pilots, term reviews — and can stop any time.
2Weigh
Health in parts — learning, family trust, adoption, service — weighted by your network’s priorities.
3Act
Every flag gets an owner, a next step and a date on the RM’s calendar.
4Review
Term reviews arrive pre-filled with evidence, so every conversation starts from facts.
Partner DeskNext step missed its date? It goes back to the RM, then their lead.
THREE WAYS TO START
Map it yourself, pilot with your RMs, or hand us reviews.
Every way ends with each partner school carrying an agreed next step and a date. Choose how much of the work you hand us.

MAKE IT YOURS
Health weighted by what your network actually values.
ONLY AT YOUR SCHOOL
Your weights, signed by your leadership
Your leadership sets the weights — say learning 40, family trust 30, adoption 20, service 10. Every health number opens into its parts and evidence. It guides where RMs spend time; it never becomes a school’s grade.

WHY IT GETS BETTER EVERY TERM
Every review makes the next warning earlier.
Signals that came before a stall become tomorrow’s early warnings. Over a few terms, your network learns how its schools struggle — and how they recover.
It learns from your own schools, so warnings arrive earlier each term.

WHERE IT LEADS
Once you can see the network, you notice what partners need.
When your own network data points somewhere, we show you the maths for those schools. Nothing is pushed to partners.
WHEN YOU NOTICE
Five or more partner principals ask for a board-ready view.
PupilInSyncTHE MATHS · AN EXAMPLE
e.g. 5 schools × 2 days a month × 12 months = 120 days of report-building back a year
WHEN YOU NOTICE
Admissions flat two terms running in three or more partner schools.
CGOSTHE MATHS · AN EXAMPLE
e.g. 3 schools × 15 more admissions × ₹40,000 fee = ₹18 lakh a year
WHEN YOU NOTICE
A partner has no consent register before a data-sharing review.
PupilGovTHE MATHS · AN EXAMPLE
e.g. 40 schools × 6 hours of manual audit = 240 hours per review cycle
A SCHOOL GROUP · BALLARI · SINCE 2001
We run schools, so we know how reviews feel.
PupilTree runs classrooms in Ballari, and has since 2001 — so Partner Desk is built to be fair to the school being reviewed. Founding networks get founding terms and a direct line to the people building it.
Founding-network terms
Founding pricing, held for three years.
Stop on day 14
No early signal your RMs agree is real? Stop, with all your data.
Partners consent first
