AI-Powered, Irish-Built
Square Root Solutions offers education software development for primary and secondary schools, building software Irish schools actually use, not systems designed for a different country's classroom. We help you cut admin time, meet compliance without the scramble, and give school leaders real visibility, whatever stage your school is at.
Irish primary and secondary schools aren't buying software the way a private business would. Budgets are tight and seasonal, staff are stretched, and whatever gets rolled out has to survive September with almost no training runway. Most EdTech vendors don't build with that reality in mind.
If you're running a primary or secondary school in Ireland, some of this will sound familiar:
None of that is really about whether technology can help. It's about software development for schools that was never built around how an Irish school actually runs.
As a school software development company offering education software development for schools, we build:
Timetabling, admissions, and communication systems built around your actual staff and processes, through connected academic and administrative workflows, so less time goes on admin, not more.
Reporting mapped to what a Board of Management or Department of Education inspection actually asks for, ready before it's needed, not assembled the week of.
Platforms that flex for a primary school's simpler needs or a secondary school managing subjects, cycles, and exam years, with age-appropriate software for different school stages, not a rigid one-size product. This covers both primary school software development and secondary school software development.
A clear, real-time picture of attendance, performance, and operations, delivered through separate portals for each school user, instead of piecing it together from spreadsheets.
Software that works whether your school is managing tight resources or a bigger IT budget, not priced or built for one and not the other, part of our broader digital solutions for schools.
A team that knows the difference between Junior Cycle and Senior Cycle, an ETB and a single school, not a generic support queue, backed by curriculum and assessment workflow support and parent communication and engagement features.
From school administration and curriculum planning to attendance, assessment and parent communication, explore digital platforms we've built to help education teams reduce workload and give school leaders better visibility.
We built a scalable Learning Management Platform for MLI International Schools, connecting admins, staff, and students across Ireland and the UK. The platform automates class placement, multi-centre scheduling, and staff grading, while student apps support assessments, schedules, and leaderboards.
Centralized dashboards provide comprehensive oversight, reporting, and usage analytics across learning centres.

We built EduSmart Planner, an AI-powered curriculum and school planning platform for CJ Fallon. It converts curriculum PDFs into structured academic plans, helping schools reduce manual planning work.
Teachers can manage lessons, assignments, and quizzes more efficiently, while admins track progress and resources through a centralized dashboard built to streamline school operations.

We rebuilt TeachKloud’s legacy system into a robust Childcare Management Platform serving 300+ schools across Europe. The platform connects management, educator, and parent apps to streamline attendance, billing, compliance, communication, and payments. We also built Educator Pal, an AI planning assistant that generates curriculum-aligned lesson plans and policies across leading frameworks.

We know a DEIS primary school and a fee-paying secondary need genuinely different things, even when they're buying "the same" category of software. We know an ETB isn't one school, it's several, often with different needs under one roof, supported by multi-school and multi-campus architecture. And we know whatever we build has to survive September: overworked staff, a two-week runway, and zero patience for a system that needs a manual.
That's the standard our custom school software development builds to, every time, delivered by school software developers Ireland schools can reach directly.
Talk to our team
Every one of these is backed by school management software developers and education app development Ireland schools already trust, delivered through a dedicated school app development company approach.
GDPR-compliant by default, hosted in Ireland, not just "somewhere in the EU." For a platform holding records on children, that's the baseline, not a nice-to-have.
Share a few details about what you're building, and we'll take it from there.

Both. We build for single schools solving a specific problem, and for ETBs and multi-school groups needing one consistent system across every site.
Both. We build for primary schools with simpler needs and secondary schools managing multiple subjects, cycles, and exam years.
Possibly. A number of Irish and EU grant schemes support education and technology projects. We can point you toward relevant options during your Discovery Call, though eligibility and funding decisions sit with the relevant grant body, not us.
Yes. We scope the build to what's actually needed and achievable, not a fixed package that assumes every school has the same resources.
Some, but not much. We design around how staff already work, so onboarding is usually a short session, not a term-long adjustment, and it holds up even with turnover.
Yes. Reporting is built around what's actually requested at inspection and board level, not a generic export that needs reformatting every time.
