School Management

SomaSmart — Smart School Management

The intelligent school management platform for Kenyan schools. From student registration to CBC grading, fee collection to parent communication — everything a modern school needs.

The Problem

Schools Deserve Better Than Paper Registers and Manual Grade Books

Kenyan schools — from primaries to secondaries — still rely on paper attendance registers, handwritten grade books, and manual fee tracking. Teachers spend hours compiling results. Parents get report cards weeks late. School administrators have no real-time picture of fee collection or academic performance. With the shift to CBC, schools need a digital partner, not more paperwork.
