07:45 — Children arrive
Each child taps their keycard at the door. The teacher’s phone fills the roster automatically. Parents get a push the moment their child is marked present.
Primary schools (EBC)
Built for the daily rhythm of an EBC.
One teacher, one class, one notebook of news to share with parents — replaced by a single Android app. Attendance in 30 seconds, parent push on check-in, simple grading aligned to MoE.
What primary teachers asked us for
Roster-tap attendance
Small classes; tap names down the list in seconds. NFC tap if the school has keycards.
Daily journal
One paragraph a day from the teacher: what we learned, what’s for homework. Parents read in the Parent app.
Permission slips
Field trip to the beach, vaccine day, photo consent — signed in two taps, no paper.
Simple grading
Per-subject term marks with EBC-style descriptors. No GPA maths until secondary.
Praise & stickers
Behaviour log doubles as a star chart. Award SOTcoin for kindness and good effort.
One-tap class news
Photo of today’s art lesson; parents see it before the school gate even opens.
From bell to break — everything covered
08:00 — Class starts
Teacher posts today’s lesson plan to the class feed in Tetum. Anything for parents to know about — show-and-tell tomorrow, library day Friday — added in one line.
10:30 — Snack break
Cafeteria scans keycards; SOTcoin balance shows on screen. Allergy alerts pop instantly for the lunch lady. No paper allergy list to chase.
13:30 — Hand-off
Parents see today’s photo, today’s homework and today’s praise before they reach the school gate. End-of-day call from the headmaster? Already logged.
