LGS prep course software for 8th graders and their parents

LGS prep course software is the program middle school prep courses use for enrollment, class groups, attendance and parent communication ahead of Turkey's high school entrance exam. The LGS is a central exam set by the Ministry of National Education with a verbal and a numerical session, and the candidates are 8th graders, so the person you actually deal with is usually a parent. In Jamaster LMS parent details live on the student record, and absence and payment follow-up runs through that contact.

The single-branch Mini plan is $49 a month, and the Pro plan for multi-branch institutions is $89 per branch per month (billed yearly), and you can try it with a 10-day free demo account.

What keeps LGS course staff busy

  • Lessons squeezed in after school

    8th graders come after school and at weekends, and the timetable shifts with the school calendar. Tell every parent at once with a templated bulk SMS, and let the lesson reminder rule draft a text 2 hours before each lesson.

  • Parents hearing about absences too late

    A parent who learns days later that their child skipped class holds the course responsible. QR attendance records it on the spot, and three missed lessons in a row create a parent meeting plan automatically.

  • Sibling discounts and mixed-up payments

    Two children from one family, each with a different discount and plan, are easy to confuse. The discount is written into each contract, and paid and late installments show per student.

What the LGS course software gives you

  • 7th and 8th-grade groups

    Open groups for 7th graders who start a year early and for 8th graders in the exam year, each with its own course and level.

  • Both parents on one record

    Parent contact details are stored with the student's identity and school information on a single record.

  • Reminder before every lesson

    With the lesson reminder rule on, an SMS draft appears 2 hours before each lesson for you to check and send.

  • Monthly installments and card payments

    Split the course fee by month, and let parents pay by card online through iyzico if they prefer.

  • Attendance before parent evenings

    Per-student and per-group attendance figures show which families you should speak to before a parent meeting.
