Running a religious school shouldn’t feel like a second job

You give your time to teach, not to chase forms, texts and payments.

8:10 am, Saturday

“Mr Daniel can’t come in. Who’s taking the Year 4 class?”

Now you’re ringing volunteers, one by one.

Start of year

“Who hasn’t sent back the consent form?”

Paper forms, missing signatures and a pile on the front desk.

Missed class

“Mia has a cold. Can you send this week’s reading?”

Catch-up work lives in a teacher’s bag or a group chat.

Parent catch-up

“How is Lucas going with his reading?”

Progress lives in each teacher’s head, not where parents can see it.

Saturday, 10 am

“The hall is booked for a wedding this weekend.”

Classes, events and hall bookings fight for the same rooms.

End of year

“We won’t be coming back next year.”

Families drift away quietly. You notice too late.

Outcoach handles all of it, built around how faith communities run their classes.
Every way you teach

Every class your community runs, in one place

From early years to youth groups and festival days, one system runs them all.

Mix and match. One student, one profile, every format.

How it works

Everything your religious school runs on, in one place

From grouping students to keeping them coming back.

1Set up
01 / 08

Group children by age

Pick your 8 to 10 year olds and turn them into a class linked to Saturday at 9 am. Each profile holds their year level, classes, forms and family contacts.

02 / 08

Schedule a whole term in one go

Add a class once, repeat it for the term, then invite every child in the 8 to 10 group.

2Every week
03 / 08

Message one parent or every family

Let a parent know what their child missed, or send the festival details to every family and see who has read it.

04 / 08

Collect fees and forms without chasing

Term fees, camp fees and book costs in one list. Send a reminder with a pay link and watch it turn to Paid.

3Student progress
05 / 08

Give every child a clear goal

“Read a short passage aloud with confidence.” “Know the story behind the festival.” Add goals from templates and update progress after each class. Parents see it too.

06 / 08

Keep learning going at home

Set small tasks after each class, like reading a page with a parent. Children tick them off at home, so you know who did them.

07 / 08

Track reading, memory work and milestones

Log reading and recitation progress, track memory work over time, and share teacher feedback with parents.

4Grow your school
08 / 08

Notice families before they drift away

See what is paid and what is owed, and the children who might not come back: missed classes, tasks not done, a form never returned.

FAQ

Questions religious schools ask us

Can’t see yours? Talk to our team and we’ll show you how it fits your school.

What is Outcoach?
Outcoach is religious school software for churches, mosques, temples, synagogues, gurdwaras and faith communities. It runs weekend and after-school classes, scripture, language and heritage classes, and festival events, with online enrolment, consent forms, fees, attendance and messaging in one app, from $0.70 per student a month.
Does it handle different age groups and subjects?
Yes. Run early years, primary and youth classes, plus language and scripture classes, side by side. Each child keeps one profile with their classes, forms, progress and family contacts.
What happens when a child misses a class?
Mark them absent and send the family a short note on what the class covered, or a task to do at home. You can see who keeps missing class and follow up early.
Can I charge fees, or run classes for free?
Both. Send term fees to every family in one go, add camp or book costs, offer sibling discounts, or run classes for free with registration only. Overdue fees get reminders with a pay link.
Can I track attendance and progress?
Yes. Take attendance on a phone, set goals for reading, recitation and memory work, and share teacher feedback. Parents see progress in the app.
What happens when a teacher can’t come in?
Move the class to another teacher or volunteer, or combine two groups. Tell every family at once by SMS and email. Outcoach AI can find the affected classes and do all of this for you from one request.
Can families enrol online?
Yes. Publish your classes on your own booking page. Families enrol each child for the year, fill in registration and consent forms, and pay or register for free in one go.
Can I manage teachers, volunteers and rooms?
Yes. Assign teachers, volunteers and rooms to every class, see each person’s timetable, and keep the hall free for events, so nothing is double-booked.
Do families get an app?
Yes, and it’s free for them. Parents can see classes, fill in forms, pay, check progress and read messages from their phone.
Can I run festivals, camps and events?
Yes. Set up an event, collect sign-ups, forms and any fees, roster helpers, and send the details to every family in one go.
Is Outcoach only for big religious schools?
No. It works for a single class in a community hall, a weekend school with many teachers, and larger communities with several sites. You pay per student, so the cost grows with your school.
How much does Outcoach cost for a religious school?
Plans start from $0.70 per student per month billed yearly, or $0.99 paid monthly. There are no setup costs or hidden fees, and you can cancel anytime.
How do I get started?
Start a free trial and set up your first class in minutes, or book a demo and we’ll walk you through it for your school.
