In Let's School, you take on the role of a school headmaster facing the challenge of renovating and managing his school! The game has two main mechanisms: building and designing the school, and managing the dynamics of the pupils and teachers.
Each pupil has his or her own interests and aspirations, which makes your role as headmaster more complex. Balancing factors such as your school's reputation, meeting pupils' basic needs, controlling academic pressure and managing aspects such as clothing, food and travel make for an immersive and challenging experience. As well as the usual responsibilities of a headteacher, you'll also have to deal with a variety of problems outside the school, including mysterious dangers and potential threats that could cause a nervous breakdown!
The architecture of the school is a blank canvas for the player. With the freedom to plan and build a variety of functional facilities and access to hundreds of educational equipment options, you define the aesthetic and practical landscape of your school. Don't limit yourself to horizontal expansion - think vertical by constructing multi-storey buildings for more innovative developments or even eccentric structures!
The fate of your teachers and students is in your hands. The recruitment process, teaching methods and personal development of teachers and students all depend on your decisions. Improving your teachers' skills opens up opportunities for them in different roles. You can influence students' morale and academic performance by offering them optional courses, thereby shaping their future life paths.
Managing school discipline is another crucial responsibility. Be aware of the impact of school facilities on pupil morale and watch out for signs of distress among pupils. Over-consumption of food in the canteen can lead to weight gain, while an increase in the number of glasses can be a sign of excessive stress. Adequate access to sanitary facilities is vital, as lack of such access can lead to widespread anxiety and misuse of school premises.
To maintain discipline, monitor the presence of contraband among students and put in place an effective system of sanctions. Managing real-time crises, such as truancy, bullying and questioning, is also your responsibility.
Promoting a balanced school environment through educational days, morning exercises and various events can help pupils to regulate their emotions. Let's School is a game of management, strategy and decision-making, where every choice you make has far-reaching consequences!
