Questions schools ask
Primary schools: common questions
What is the best system for primary schools in Kenya?
Shulepoa suits primary schools from PP1 to Grade 6: CBC assessments and report cards, fee collection through M-Pesa, daily attendance, SMS to parents and a simple Android app for teachers. Parents receive results and fee balances by SMS on any phone, so no smartphone is needed.
Do parents need a smartphone?
No. Fee balances, results and alerts reach parents by SMS on any mobile phone. Parents with a smartphone can also use the parent portal or the Android app to see statements and report cards.
Can parents pay school fees with M-Pesa through Shulepoa?
Yes. Parents pay to the school's M-Pesa paybill using the learner's admission number. Shulepoa matches each payment to the right learner, issues the receipt, updates the fee balance and can send the parent an SMS confirmation. Overpayments can be split across learners or carried forward.
How do we move our school to Shulepoa?
Book a demo, then Shulepoa imports your learners from Excel, CSV or Word files, sets up classes, streams, subjects, fee structures and grading, connects your M-Pesa paybill and fingerprint terminals, and trains your staff. Teachers and parents then sign in on the web or the Android app.
How much does Shulepoa cost?
Pricing depends on the number of learners and the modules your school needs. Contact Shulepoa for a quote and a free demo using your own school's setup.
