Running a school in Nigeria has long been a demanding and complex task, often fraught with challenges such as overwhelmed teachers, mountains of paperwork, disengaged students, and unpaid fees. Recognizing these persistent issues, Afrilearn, one of Africa's most innovative and award-winning edtech startups, has introduced a revolutionary solution: an all-in-one School Management Software (SMS) designed specifically for African primary and secondary schools.
A Game-Changer for Schools Across Africa
Afrilearn SMS is more than just a digital tool; it’s a comprehensive platform that aims to significantly streamline school operations, enhance student performance, and support the growth of educational institutions. By automating routine administrative tasks, the platform alleviates much of the stress faced daily by school administrators, teachers, parents, and students alike. According to Isaac Oladipupo, CEO of Afrilearn, school leaders now benefit from time savings, with schools using Afrilearn SMS saving an average of 120 minutes per staff member each week. This efficiency allows staff to focus more on teaching and student development while facilitating faster school growth.
Gabriel Olatunji-Legend, Afrilearn’s Chief Operating Officer, emphasizes the platform’s core mission: to remove the burdens that stakeholders face and enable schools to operate more intelligently and effectively. He highlights that the tool empowers schools to work smarter, grow faster, and deliver tangible results for all involved—students, teachers, and parents alike.
How Afrilearn SMS Works
The platform addresses multiple facets of school management seamlessly through a unified interface. It simplifies fee collection by automating reminders and enabling secure online payments, helping schools improve their revenue cycle while reducing cash flow issues. Teachers benefit from readily available curriculum content integrated into the platform, reducing time spent on administrative tasks and allowing more focus on engaging students in meaningful activities. Parents receive real-time updates on their child's progress, test results, and fee status, fostering greater involvement and support for their children’s education. For students, the platform provides access to enhanced learning tools, smarter assessments, and the opportunity to excel academically.
Having already impacted over 3 million learners through its personalized K-12 learning app, Afrilearn now extends this impact to entire schools through the SMS platform. Famak British School’s principal, Daniel Odobo, notes the positive changes: “Afrilearn SMS has made everything easier for us. Our teachers are happier, our parents are more supportive, and our students are now performing better than before. Since we adopted it, we’ve experienced genuine growth across the board.”
A Vision for the Future of Education in Africa
Afrilearn’s innovative platform aims to empower schools to operate more effectively, improve student outcomes, and support institutional growth—all while reducing the administrative burdens that often hinder educational progress. As more schools across Nigeria and Africa adopt these smart management tools, the educational landscape is poised for a significant transformation.
