Real screens from our demo maktab. Every name in them is made up.

Attendance in seconds

Teachers mark each child present, late or absent from a phone. The admin can see which classes have taken the register today.

  • Start the day, tap each child, done: no paper register
  • Each child's attendance pattern across the term
  • Parents see every session attended, late or missed

For: Teacher · Maktab admin · Parent

Teacher — today's register for one class

Lessons with video

Teachers put each lesson online with a video and notes, kept to their own class, so children can catch up at home.

  • Add a video, a PDF, audio or a link
  • Reuse a lesson from last term in one step
  • See which children have finished it

For: Teacher · Student

  • Children hand in from home
  • Marks and comments in one place
  • Parents see what was set and what came back
