The Problem
Your enrollment system crashes during peak times. Teachers waste hours on admin instead of teaching. Parents can't get simple updates about their kids. Assessment data sits in spreadsheets nobody can find.
How I Can Help
I build custom web apps that handle your specific workflow. Student portals, course management systems, parent communication tools. Built to work exactly how your school operates, not how software companies think you should.

FAQ
What does custom education software cost?
Simple student portals start around $8,000. Complex enrollment and course management systems run $15,000-30,000. I'll give you a fixed quote upfront so there's no surprises in your school budget.
How long does it take to build school software?
Timing depends on the smallest useful outcome and the workflow details that need to be handled safely. We first agree the scope, then provide a clear delivery plan before development starts.
Can you integrate with our existing school management system?
Most likely yes. I can connect to common systems like SEQTA, Sentral and MAZE through their APIs. If your system exports data, I can usually make it work together.
How do you work with Brisbane schools remotely?
Screen sharing for demos, email for updates, phone calls when needed. I'm online during your school hours so technical issues get sorted fast, not left until the next day.
Do you understand education compliance requirements?
I research the specific requirements for your situation. Privacy policies, data handling, accessibility standards - I'll make sure your software meets what the education department expects from schools.
Working With Me
- —I'm online during Brisbane business hours (ACST is only 30 minutes behind AEST) so you can reach me when issues come up during the school day.
- —Australian ABN and GST-registered. You'll get proper invoices in AUD, not foreign currency conversions that mess up your school's accounting.
- —Remote work means lower overheads than Brisbane developers, so you get quality software without the big-city price tag inflating your education budget.
