School Management System

School Management System

A School Management System is a web-based application that helps manage day-to-day school operations such as student enrollment, teacher assignments, classes, exams, attendance, and results. Using Spring MVC, Spring Data JPA, and Thymeleaf, the system is modular, maintainable, and efficient.

Technologies

Spring MVC: Controls the flow of the web application using Model-View-Controller architecture.

Spring Data JPA: Manages database operations through repositories with minimal boilerplate code.

Thymeleaf: Renders dynamic HTML pages with server-side data binding.

Database: Typically MySQL for storing persistent data.

Core Features

Student Management: Add, update, delete, and view student profiles.

Teacher Management: Manage teacher information and subject assignments.

Class Scheduling: Organize students and teachers into classes and timetables.

Exams & Results: Create exams, record marks, and generate report cards.

Attendance Tracking: Maintain daily attendance for students and staff.

Role-Based Access: Admin, Teacher, and Student roles with restricted access.

System Architecture

Model: Entity classes (e.g. Student, Teacher, Class, Exam) mapped to database tables.

Repository: Spring Data JPA interfaces for CRUD operations.

Service Layer: Business logic and data manipulation.

Controller Layer: Handles HTTP requests and interacts with the view.

View Layer: Thymeleaf templates that display dynamic content.

Advantages

Clean and scalable architecture.

Easy database interaction with JPA.

Interactive and responsive UI using Thymeleaf.
