Create and open schools

After signing in, first create your school. Subscriptions and payments are per school. You can create a second school in the same way.

  1. Enter the school name and country, and create the school

    If you don’t have a school yet, the Schools screen shows the Create a school section. Enter the school name, choose the country where the school is located, and select [Create school].

    1. Enter the school name. You can change it later in the school settings.
    2. Choose the country where the school is located. The country changes how invoices are written, but the fees are the same.
    3. Select this to show a confirmation screen.

    The country cannot be changed while you have a subscription (after you cancel, you can change it in the school settings).

  2. Confirm and create the school

    If a school with the same name already exists, the confirmation screen shows “A school with the same name already exists.”. Please check that you are not creating the same school twice. You can still create it if you wish.

    Check the school name and country on the confirmation screen, then select [Create school]. The Students screen of the new school opens. Please continue by adding students.

  3. Open a school from the school list

    Select “Soroban Portal” at the very top of the screen to open the Schools screen. Select a school name to open that school’s screen.

    1. Select this to open the Students screen of that school. The subscription status is shown next to the school name.
    2. Select this to create another school.
    The Schools screen of a teacher with two schools

    Each school has its own subscription and payments.

    There is no screen for adding another teacher who manages the school with you (an assistant teacher). If you want to add one, please ask that teacher to sign in to Soroban Portal once, and then send their email address and the school name to support@sicorp.jp. SIC will add that teacher as a manager of the school.

    There is a limit on the number of schools you can create. When you reach it, the screen tells you when you try to create a school.

    One of the following subscription statuses is shown next to each school name. For what each means and what to do, please see “Start a subscription, pay, and cancel”.

    • No subscription: The subscription has not been started yet.
    • Active: The school has a subscription and can be used.
    • Past due: Payment has not been confirmed. Please pay by the due date.
    • Suspended: Payment could not be confirmed, and the school has been suspended.
    • Cancellation scheduled: Cancellation has been requested. You can use the school until the cancellation date.
    • Canceled: The subscription has been canceled.
