Students book themselves beta
The teacher sets a weekly window, and the student or parent picks a free slot. The booking becomes a lesson in the schedule and register straight away.
Bookings Who it is for: Language school
Cerium for language schools
Software for a private language school, from the first enquiry to the certificate: placement test, levelled groups, course syllabus, class register, payments and reports for parents in one place.
One student, from enquiry to certificate
This is how a student moves through the school. Each step is a module that hands its data to the next, so nobody retypes anything.
- CRM
Enquiry in the CRM
A parent writes through the form on your website or from Facebook, and the enquiry lands in the pipeline with a stage, an owner and a next step.
- Placement test
Placement test
The candidate takes the test from a link, without an account. The result freezes the level, and the enquiry gets the note “Placement test: 72 %, B1”.
- Groups
Group with a CEFR level
Every group has a level from A1 to C2, a subject and teachers, so the student lands where the result fits.
- Course programme
Course syllabus
The group follows a syllabus: a coursebook, units in order and “where we are” worked out from the lessons already taught.
- Schedule
Lessons in the Schedule
A series creates lessons for the whole term, with rooms, cover teachers and days off that it skips on its own.
- Journal
Class register
The teacher takes attendance, enters the topic and the syllabus unit, and sets homework with a material attached.
- Exercises
Progress
The student does exercises and reviews vocabulary at intervals set for them, and grades add up to averages per category.
- Finance
Payment
An instalment plan, a payment link or a card charged automatically, and the invoice goes to KSeF through your accounting software.
- Students
Student report
A frozen snapshot of attendance, grades and homework with the teacher’s comment, sent as a link to the student and guardians.
- Certificates
Certificate
At the end of the course the whole group gets diplomas from one template, with a number that runs through the year and a link to print.
A teacher’s day
Teachers do not sit at a desk. Everything they do around a lesson fits on a phone, between one room and the next.

What is here for languages
Seven things a generic class system lacks, because it does not know a language is being taught.
CEFR levels
The level is a field on every group, from A1 to C2, not part of the name, so you can filter and plan by it.
Module: GroupsPlacement test
A public test with level thresholds, a frozen result and an enquiry in the pipeline.
Module: Placement testCourse syllabus
A coursebook split into units, one syllabus per group and progress worked out from lessons taught.
Module: Course programmeVocabulary with review
Word sets for the group and reviews at intervals calculated separately for each student.
Module: VocabularyExercises
Eleven task types marked against a key, and one click puts the result in the register.
Module: ExercisesStudent report
Attendance, grades and homework with the teacher’s comment, frozen on the day it is sent.
Module: StudentsCertificates
A course completion diploma for the whole group at once, with the level, a number and a link.
Module: CertificatesOne-to-one lessons
A one-to-one lesson lives in the same schedule and register as a group. There is no second calendar to keep in sync.
Cancellation with one rule beta
Before a set number of hours the lesson disappears. After that it stays as “cancelled late” and counts towards the instalment, and the student sees this before clicking.
BookingsMake-up and extra lessons
Make-up and extra lessons sit next to the series, and a new series does not overwrite them.
GroupsCover teacher
Another teacher takes over a single lesson for the day and sees the group only around that cover date.
SchedulePay and payroll from lessons taught
A “per lesson” plan calculates the instalment from the rate and the month’s lessons, and the teacher’s payroll uses the same lessons taught.
SettlementsLesson packages with an expiry date (for example ten lessons within three months) are not available today. Payment is by instalment plan or per lesson taught.
Who sees what
One school, four points of view. The server enforces the boundary on every save, not a hidden button in the menu.
| Role | Sees | Changes |
|---|---|---|
| Management | The whole school: finance, groups, staff, reports, limits and every message thread. | Payment plans, teacher assignments, syllabuses, report and certificate templates, school settings. |
| Teacher | Their own groups and lessons, those students, syllabuses and materials, and a covered group only around the cover date. | Attendance, topics, grades, homework and materials, but only in their own lessons. |
| Student | Their weekly plan, own register, homework, exercises, vocabulary, materials and payments if they have no guardian. | Does exercises, reviews vocabulary, books a one-to-one lesson and pays online. |
| Guardian | Each child separately: attendance, grades, remarks, payments, reports and contracts. | Pays with the “Pay” button, books lessons for the child and writes to management, reception and teachers. |

Questions we hear most often
Short answers, no overpromising. What is missing is listed alongside.
What Cerium does not do here
- This is not a register for public schools: Librus and Vulcan cover what the ministry requires. For a private primary school there is a separate plan with the Classes module (pilot).
- Lesson packages with an expiry date are not available today.
- No Zoom, Meet or Teams: online lessons run inside Cerium.
Yes. A level from A1 to C2 is a field on every group, not part of its name, so you can filter by it. The placement test turns a percentage score into a level using the school’s thresholds.
Yes. The candidate takes it from a public link without creating an account. The score and level freeze when it is submitted, and an enquiry with a note about the result appears in the pipeline.
Yes. A syllabus is a coursebook split into ordered units and assigned to a group. The teacher marks the unit at each lesson, and “where we are” comes from the last lesson taught, so a cover teacher sees the same thing.
The school sets how many hours before a lesson a cancellation is free. Before that the lesson disappears from the schedule; after that it stays as “cancelled late” and counts towards payment. The student sees what will happen before clicking.
Yes. The panel works in the phone’s browser and is designed from a 390 px width up: attendance, topic, grades and homework fit on one screen.
Not in the stores yet. An App Store and Google Play app with push notifications is in preparation; until then the whole panel works in the phone’s browser.
