The full Early Years operating system

One platform, built from the gate to the board room.

Everything a nursery and primary school needs to run well and keep every child safe, organised into five families that work as one system.

Safety & safeguarding

Keep every child safe

Authorized pickups

An approved guardian list per child. A timestamped record of exactly who collected each one, every day. See more

QR check-in and check-out

A quick scan at the gate logs arrival and departure for every child, with parents notified each time.

Incident logging

A bump, fall, or concern recorded at the moment it happens, with a clear trail to share and act on.

Health and wellness records

Allergies, vaccinations, and wellbeing kept current and accessible to the right staff at the point of care.

Smart attendance New

Configurable statuses, arrival context capture, and automatic analytics flagging patterns the head teacher needs to see.

Child daily journey New

A timestamped event log for every child, built throughout the day in a few taps per entry. Downloadable as a branded PDF.

Track how each child grows

Developmental milestones

Nursery assessments with EYFS learning areas judged Emerging, Expected, or Exceeding.

Report cards and assessments

Observations link to framework indicators. Report cards draw from those observations and apply the correct scale automatically.

Computer-based testing

Create an exam once, assign it to the class. Students sit it digitally. Results are ready before the session ends.

House points and engagement

Recognise effort and participation in a way young children respond to, tracked across the term.

Child and family records

One trusted record per child

Child records and enrollment

From the enrollment application to graduation, every child's record held in one place, complete and current.

Guardian management

Guardian details, contacts, and approved pickup lists tied to each child and controlled by the school.

Family Hub New

The parent's structured home screen. Six panels that answer every question they were going to call about.

Parent portal

Each parent's private login for daily journey, daily reports, health records, milestones, fee statements, and direct teacher messaging.

Daily reports

Meals, naps, mood, and a photo from the day, sent home so parents never have to wonder how it went.

Finance and operations

Run the school well

Dedicated Virtual Accounts Paystack

Every parent has their own unique bank account number. Transfers reconcile automatically. No manual matching, no disputes.

Finance and payroll

School finance, budgeting, and expense tracking in one view, so decisions rest on current numbers.

Staff and class management

Organise classes, assign staff, and manage your team, with the right people tied to the right children.

Communication WhatsApp + SMS

Reach parents directly through WhatsApp, SMS, and in-app messages, not a chain of forwards.

Academic calendar

Terms, events, and key dates in one shared calendar.

School analytics

A leadership dashboard bringing fees, attendance, and performance into one real-time picture.

Getting started

1 CSV to onboard your entire student body

Auto classroom creation

The system reads the class column in your CSV and creates any classroom that does not yet exist. Nothing to configure first.

Parent account creation

Each parent receives an account with a temporary password set to their phone number. A flag forces a change on first login.

Automatic parent-child linking

Each child is linked to their parent in the same upload. No separate step, no manual matching.
