For whoever's still doing this by hand

Faster than a Word template.

You already have the template. You already know the grades. Transcripta fills it in — same crest, same letterhead, same layout — so the part that used to take an afternoon takes minutes.

Still your template. CSEC & CAPE grading built in.

The job it replaces

Transcripts are slow for a reason.

A transcript can be needed for any student, at any time — not just when they're leaving — and every one is still assembled by hand from years of term reports. Transcripta does the assembling.

By hand

  • Open the Word template and retype the letterhead details every time
  • Pull five to seven years of term reports from the student’s file
  • Compare Christmas against Summer for every subject, every year, and keep the higher grade
  • Convert CSEC and CAPE results into the school’s pass codes by memory
  • Fight column widths and row heights every time a student has more subjects than usual
  • Check the arithmetic on every GPA — and count subjects by eye to be sure none got missed

With Transcripta

  • School details are already set — they came with your template
  • Enter the grades once, bring a student in from a saved file, or upload an already-filled transcript
  • You still compare Christmas against Summer and decide the higher grade — Transcripta does not do this automatically. Grade suggestions and quick navigation just make typing it in fast.
  • Pass codes follow the rules your school actually uses
  • The layout adjusts to fit — five subjects or thirty-five, still one page
  • GPAs are calculated as you type, with a running subject count so nothing goes in missing

The part that has nothing to do with grades

Half the real work isn’t the grades at all.

It’s the document fighting you. A student with thirty subjects across seven years runs past the bottom of the page. Row heights get uneven the moment you add one more subject. It looks right on your screen and comes out different from the printer. None of that is about what the student earned — it’s Word being Word.

Transcripta handles it. Add a student with five subjects or thirty-five — the layout adjusts itself to actually fit on one page, properly spaced, not squeezed. What prints matches what you see. You stop babysitting the document and just look at the grades.

No institutional sign-off, no procurement — just you and your template

Three steps, and the first one happens once.

Step 01 · once per school

Send us your template

The Word transcript your school already uses, with your crest, letterhead and layout exactly as they are. We turn it into your own dedicated Transcripta — the same one, every time you sign in.

Step 02 · per student

Enter the grades

Type them in, or load a student you saved earlier. Year GPAs and pass codes update as you go, so mistakes surface while you’re still looking at the page.

Step 03 · per student

Download the Word file

You get a .docx built from your own template — ready to check, sign and print. Nothing about the document says it came from software.

Built for how this actually gets done

Details that matter locally.

CSEC and CAPE, properly handled

Grades one through five map to your school’s own pass codes, and CAPE units are reported separately from CSEC subjects.

Already have a filled-in transcript?

Upload it and it comes back into the tool exactly as if you’d built it here — ready to edit and reprint, not retype from scratch.

Your grading scale, not a default one

Grade bands, GPA points and pass-code rules are set per school, so the numbers match what your reports already say.

Grades 7 through 13

Including sixth form, transfer students who joined partway through, and repeated years.

More than one layout, if you need it

If your school uses a different transcript layout for a different purpose — sixth form versus lower school, say — you can keep both, each with its own settings.

Works in the browser

Nothing to install, and nothing that has to be kept updated on a school computer.

Worth knowing before you use it

What it doesn’t do.

  • It doesn’t replace your school management system. Transcripta produces transcripts. Attendance, timetabling and report cards stay wherever they already live.
  • There’s no AI reading grades off a photo, on purpose. An early version tried that. It got removed — because on an official document, knowing a number is right matters more than typing it faster. Every grade on a Transcripta transcript was typed in by a person who saw it.
  • It’s early. One registrar, one school, right now — Transcripta hasn’t been used anywhere else yet. If that matters to you, better to know now than later.

Where this actually came from

York Castle High School built this to solve its own problem — then realized every school has it.

It started as a problem only York Castle needed solved: their own registrar losing an entire afternoon per student — retyping the letterhead, pulling five to seven years of term reports, comparing Christmas against Summer by hand for every subject, converting CSEC and CAPE results into the school’s own pass codes from memory. Rather than keep absorbing that cost every single time a transcript was needed, York Castle had Transcripta built to make it disappear entirely — for their own registrar, on their own real students, first. Once it was actually working, the obvious thing became hard to ignore: every secondary school still doing this by hand has the exact same afternoon disappearing, over and over. So York Castle is making the same tool it built for itself available to the schools sitting right alongside it.

Proven on real students first, not a demo

Every real bug this software has ever had — a wrong GPA, a letterhead that silently didn’t match what was typed in Settings, a page that looked right on screen and printed wrong — got caught because it was actually being used for York Castle’s own real students, not shown off in a demo first and fixed later.

One school proved it, on purpose, before any other

York Castle chose to get this right for its own registrar completely before offering it to anyone else — the honesty panel above isn’t a disclaimer bolted on for trust, it’s the actual order things happened in.
