Parents previously relied on WhatsApp groups and front-office calls to learn about absences and fees. Staff spent mornings answering the same questions.
With Dshule, teachers mark attendance once; guardians who opt in receive alerts and can view the live student record in English or Kiswahili.
The school kept paper notices for families without smartphones while growing digital adoption term by term.
