At a glance
BOT, MOT and EOT
Three exams a term, each out of 100, named the way your school names them, each counted or left out.
Aggregates and divisions
Grades from your own scale; every pupil’s aggregates, division and position worked out.
Parents in the loop
Fees reminders by SMS with each child’s own balance, and the School Dynamics app.
Marks and report cards
Report cards that work themselves out
Teachers enter marks for their own subjects, on a computer or in the app. Grades, aggregates, divisions, positions and comments follow.
- Your own grading scale, with your grade names and the aggregate each grade carries.
- Aggregates and divisions for the subjects you mark as graded: Division 1 up to 12 aggregates, 2 up to 24, 3 up to 29, 4 up to 35, then U.
- Positions in the class or the stream, ties sharing a place; printed, left blank to fill in by hand, or left out.
- Comments from a comment bank, chosen by each pupil’s aggregates for the class teacher and the head teacher, with the pupil’s name filled in.
- A whole class printed at once, in your school’s colours, with its badge and the teachers’ signatures.

Fees and SchoolPay
Fees that add up to the shilling
Set each class’s fees once a term, bill the whole school in one go, and see every payment land on the right pupil’s account.
- Every pupil billed once a term, with last term’s balances carried forward and bursaries taken off.
- SchoolPay payments matched to the pupil by their payment code, each payment once, with its receipt number.
- Lunch, transport and other services billed only to the pupils who take them.
- A numbered receipt for every payment, and a statement for every pupil, on paper or on screen.

Parents
Every parent told, in their own child’s words
Text the parents of one class, of the whole school, or only those who still owe more than an amount you choose.
- Each message with the child’s name and balance filled in for that parent.
- The cost shown before you send, paid from the school’s own SMS credit.
- One parent for brothers and sisters who share a guardian’s number, so nobody is texted three times.
- Report cards in the app once you mark them ready, held back while fees are owed.

Attendance
Who is in school today
The class teacher takes the roll-call on a phone, even where there is no network, and the office sees who is missing.
- Roll-calls for classes, meals and activities, and for arriving at and leaving school.
- Parents of absent pupils texted after the roll-call, with the cost shown first and each parent told once.
- An attendance report for any period, by class or stream, with the pupils most often absent.

Your first week
From sign-up to the first report cards
Sign up
Your classes from Baby class to P.7, this year and its three terms are made for you in minutes.
Bring in your pupils
From an Excel spreadsheet, with the fees balances they carry. Our team helps you do it.
Set fees and bill
Enter each class’s fees, look at the preview, and bill the whole school in one go.
Marks and report cards
Teachers enter BOT, MOT and EOT marks; you print the cards and release them to parents.
Who does what
- Teachers
- Enter marks for their own subjects and take roll-calls.
- Director of studies
- Sets up exams and report cards, and enters or corrects any marks.
- Head teacher
- Releases report cards and sees the fees and the books without being able to change them.
- Bursar
- Bills fees, records payments, brings in SchoolPay and follows up balances.
- Secretary
- Admits pupils, keeps their records and texts parents.
Each member of staff signs in as themselves; their role decides what they can change and what they can only look at.
Good to know
So nothing surprises you after you start:
- Divisions on your report cards follow the aggregate bands above. UNEB does not publish its full PLE division table, so a division on a mock report is a guide to the PLE, not a prediction of it.
- Parents see balances in the app and pay through SchoolPay, the bank or at the school; the app does not take payments itself.
Questions
What schools ask us
Can we use our own grading scale?
Yes. Name your grades as you like, give each a range of marks and the aggregate it carries. The scale is checked when you save it, so no two ranges overlap.
Can teachers enter marks on a phone?
Yes. In the School Dynamics app, teachers enter BOT, MOT and EOT marks, and theology marks where you teach theology, only for the subjects they teach.
Can report cards be held back for unpaid fees?
Yes. A parent sees a report card in the app only after you mark it ready and the fees balance is cleared; until then the app shows that it is held back.
We also teach theology. Is that included?
Yes. Theology classes, marks and report cards sit beside the secular ones, and one report card can carry both.
How long does it take to start?
The school is set up as soon as you sign up. Bringing in your pupils from a spreadsheet comes next, and our team helps you do it.
