Direct answer
Multi-branch management lets the owning organisation grant limited central visibility across institutions that are genuinely connected, while each branch keeps its own scope and permissions. It does not mean comparing independent schools or sharing their data, settings or operating methods.
Guide method and boundaries
This guide reflects capabilities reviewed in Raqeem at the stated revision date. It separates available functionality from planned work and does not claim external certification, integration or synchronisation without published evidence.
Establish the administrative relationship
Central visibility is granted only inside a group with real ownership or management and documented permissions.
Each central user’s institutions, data scope and allowed actions are defined explicitly.
Preserve branch autonomy
Student, family, staff and finance data remain tied to the correct branch and its internal permissions.
A branch director does not gain access to another branch merely because both use the platform.
Do not transfer school practices
Authorised management visibility does not become public comparison or recommendations copied from another school’s methods.
Practices and indicators are not shared between independent institutions, even in anonymised or aggregated form for practice transfer.
Multi-branch controls
- Established administrative relationship.
- Defined central users and scope.
- Every record tied to the correct branch.
- No cross-branch access without permission.
- No sharing of school practices or comparisons.
