View all tools for Asia schoolsSchool System in Cambodia
Cambodia operates its education system under the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport, structured into six years of primary education, three years of lower secondary education, and three years of upper secondary education. The system follows a national curriculum with Khmer as the language of instruction alongside English and French as foreign languages. Higher education entry is mediated through the national high school graduation examination, and the system has expanded significantly following reconstruction of the education sector over recent decades.
Academic Year Structure
The Cambodian school year runs from late October or November to late July or August, organised into two semesters with breaks for Khmer New Year in April, Pchum Ben, and the Water Festival in November. Administrators plan around term dates, national holidays, and examination windows.

Common School Administration Challenges in Cambodia
School administrators in Cambodia face a unique set of challenges shaped by the country's education system, regulatory environment, and cultural expectations. Here are the most pressing pain points we hear from Cambodian educators:
Cambodian schools must align with the national curriculum while improving the quality of teaching and learning across a system that expanded rapidly after reconstruction.
Administrative capacity in public schools is often stretched, with many schools relying on limited non-teaching staff.
Teacher supply and professional development are uneven, particularly in rural and remote communities.
Attendance tracking and reporting feed national statistics, so accurate record-keeping matters for policy and funding.
The national high school graduation examination and the transition to higher education demand careful coordination of scheduling and reporting.

How SchoolKit Helps Cambodian Schools
Every SchoolKit tool is free, private, and works entirely in your browser — no downloads, no sign-ups, no data leaving your school.
Academic Calendar Builder
Most relevant tool for Cambodia schools
Cambodian schools plan their November-to-August year around Khmer New Year, Pchum Ben, and the Water Festival. Our Academic Calendar Builder handles the two-semester structure, auto-populates Cambodian public holidays, and lets administrators colour-code examination periods, term dates, and school events. The PDF export produces professional calendars for staff rooms and parents, while the iCal export keeps families synced to the school year.
Attendance Register Generator
Also highly relevant for Cambodia schools
Accurate attendance records support school reporting and national statistics across Cambodia's education system. Our Attendance Register Generator produces print-ready monthly registers aligned to the two-semester school year, with CSV import for class rosters and simple weekly or monthly layouts.
All Free Tools for Cambodian Schools
Exam Timetable Builder
Cambodian secondary schools run termly assessments and high school graduation examination preparation that need clash-free scheduling across classes and rooms. Our Exam Timetable Builder automatically detects conflicts across students, teachers, and rooms, generating a complete, printable timetable in seconds.
Parent-Teacher Meeting Scheduler
Parent involvement is central to Cambodian school life, but coordinating meetings often relies on paper sign-up sheets. Our scheduler creates shareable booking pages so parents can choose a slot online and teachers can see their full schedule at a glance.
School Communication Templates
Cambodian schools communicate with parents in Khmer on matters from attendance to examination schedules. Our template library includes 50+ professionally written notices covering attendance, behaviour, events, and emergencies, structured for quick adaptation and sharing.
Teacher Evaluation Rubric Builder
Cambodian teacher appraisal supports professional development and school improvement planning. Our rubric builder lets school heads create evaluation criteria with weighted scoring, and generate professional PDF reports suitable for development planning.
Parent Satisfaction Survey
Parent feedback supports Cambodian schools in strengthening community engagement and school improvement planning. Our survey tool makes it easy to create and distribute satisfaction surveys, with results displayed in a clear dashboard and exportable as PDF summary reports.
School Bus Route Planner
School transport matters for families across Cambodia. Our route planner uses OpenStreetMap to map stops, group routes, calculate distances, and print driver route cards, helping schools run safe and efficient transport services.
School Administration in Cambodia
School administration in Cambodia operates within a national education system coordinated by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport, structured into primary, lower secondary, and upper secondary cycles. Administrators manage a November-to-August school year in two semesters, keep attendance records that feed national statistics, coordinate the high school graduation examination and the transition to higher education, and communicate with families in Khmer — all while navigating a rapidly expanding system and stretched administrative capacity. In this environment, simple and reliable administrative tools make a genuine difference. SchoolKit provides free, browser-based tools built for Cambodian schools — calendars that respect national observances, registers that keep record-keeping simple, and communication tools that reach every family. Every tool runs entirely in the browser, so no student data ever leaves the school.

Yes. The holiday preset library includes Khmer New Year, Pchum Ben, the Water Festival, Independence Day, and other public holidays. You can add school-specific events and mark examination windows with custom colours.

Are these tools compliant with Cambodia's data protection expectations?
All SchoolKit tools run entirely client-side in your browser. Student names, attendance records, and any other information you enter never leave your computer. No data is transmitted to any server, stored in any database, or shared with any third party, which supports the confidentiality expectations for student records.
Can the tools be used offline in schools with limited connectivity?
Yes. After the initial page load, all SchoolKit tools work offline because every calculation happens in your browser. PDF exports mean calendars, registers, and notices can be printed and shared even where connectivity is limited.
