Schools in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and across East Africa are adopting cloud school management systems to cut admin work and keep parents informed. Here is how to choose well.
The must-have modules
- Student information & academics — enrolment, classes, grading and report cards aligned to local curricula.
- Fees management — invoices, statements, M-Pesa and bank payments, and automatic reminders.
- Exams & timetables — mark entry, analysis and scheduling.
- Parent portal & a mobile app — results, fee balances and announcements on Android and iOS.
- HR & payroll — staff records and statutory deductions.
Cloud, local payments, low cost
A good system should go live in hours, work on any device, and support the payment methods your parents already use.
Our recommendation
Citycloud School Edition gives Kenyan and East African schools students, academics, fees, exams, HR and a parent mobile app in one platform, with a free trial. See the school system.
