Users, Roles, and Permissions: The Right View for Everyone

One System, Many Audiences

A school system serves very different people: principals who need everything, teachers who need their classes, parents who need their children, and students who need their own view. Each must see exactly what they need — nothing more.

Roles in NileByte LMS

Built-in Roles That Match School Reality

  • Super Admin / Landlord — platform-wide control across schools
  • School Admin — full control of one school
  • Teacher — classes, attendance, and grades they own
  • Parent — their children's records and communication
  • Student — personal view of timetable, grades, and homework

Custom Roles When Needed

Head of department, accountant, librarian, HR — create roles with precisely the permissions each function requires.

  • Full audit of logins and changes

Simple User Management

Create users in bulk, assign roles, and manage accounts as staff join and leave — with the school's data always protected.

With NileByte LMS, every user sees the right view — and nothing they should not.
