EduManage: Smart Academic Management for Modern Institutions

This paper presented EduManage Pro, a student academic management system implemented using Python Flask. The system consolidates student enrolment, semester-wise subject and result management, automated CGPA & SGPA computation, per-subject attendance tracking, and role-based access control into a single page web-application (SPA) using only Python and a file system. The evaluation confirmed 100% correctness across 42 test cases which covered all functional requirements. The application successfully exhibits how lightweight web frameworks when architected carefully can deliver enterprise-level academic management functionality, without the overhead of large-scale enterprise infrastructure. EduManage Pro is particularly suited to smaller institutions and individual departments that are seeking to modernise their academic record-keeping with minimal IT budget and operational complexity. The source code, deployment configuration and documentation are available as an open project suitable for further research and institutional adoption.
