The platform

Everything a school runs on, on one platform.

Rynedu is not a collection of tools that happen to share a login. It is one record of the school, read from whichever desk you sit at.

Why one platform

One learner. One record. Five departments.

This is the sequence that separate systems break. Following it end to end is the whole point of the platform.

  1. 01

    A learner is admitted

    Records, guardians and class placement captured once.

  2. 02

    The fee account is raised

    Priced by their class and term — pro-rated if they joined mid-term.

  3. 03

    The parent pays

    M-Pesa, bank or cash office. Allocated across vote heads and receipted.

  4. 04

    The books move

    Revenue, receipts and relief post to the general ledger as they happen.

  5. 05

    Everyone sees the same thing

    The statement, the arrears list and the parent portal cannot disagree.

The ecosystem

Twelve parts of a school, one platform holding them together.

Module by module

What each part of the platform does.

Every module below is a full product in its own right — and every one of them reads from the same school record.

Every learner, every record, one register.

Admissions through to leavers, with the school's own structure — classes, streams, houses, roles — set up once and respected everywhere else in the platform.

Administration in detail
  • Admissions and enrolment, with the fee account raised as the learner is admitted
  • Learner profiles, guardians, documents and photographs
  • Classes, streams and promotions at the end of a year
  • Leavers kept on record — graduated, transferred or withdrawn
  • Users, roles and per-module permissions
  • School setup: terms, calendar, branding and enabled modules
  • ID cards, document verification and printable registers

From the scheme of work to the report card.

Built for CBE as Kenyan schools actually run it, and configurable for 8-4-4, IGCSE, IB and other systems. Marks enter once and flow to reports, rankings and analysis.

Academics in detail
  • Curriculum, learning areas, subjects and electives
  • Schemes of work, lesson plans and lesson coverage
  • Exams, assessment numbers, papers and marks entry
  • CBE competency assessment, strands and portfolios
  • Progress records and consolidated full-term records
  • Report cards with the school's own letterhead and footer
  • Rankings, subject analysis and an academic command centre for the Director of Academics

Fees that reconcile, books that stand up to audit.

The strongest part of the platform. A vote-head fee engine, one running account per learner, and a real double-entry general ledger behind it.

Finance in detail
  • Fee structures by vote head, class and term
  • One running invoice per learner, with prior balances carried properly
  • M-Pesa payments, bank deposits, cash office and receipting
  • Statements per term, per period, and per vote head
  • Concessions, sponsorships, bursaries and special-needs fees
  • Bank reconciliation, petty cash, vouchers and deposits
  • General ledger, trial balance, income statement and year-end pack
  • Budgets, imprest, payables and supplier settlement

Reach every parent, in the channel they read.

A subscription for SMS, WhatsApp and email, with one outbox, one audience list and metering a school can check line by line.

Communication in detail
  • SMS to parents and staff, with per-message delivery status
  • WhatsApp and email as channels of the same subscription
  • Message templates with validated placeholders
  • A prepaid wallet with every movement recorded, append-only
  • Fee reminders, absence notices and school announcements
  • In-app messaging between staff, and to parent and learner portals

The staff side of the school, on the same platform.

Records, contracts, leave, payroll and performance for teaching and non-teaching staff, linked to the same logins they use to teach.

HR & Payroll in detail
  • Staff records, contracts, documents and the org structure
  • Leave applications, approvals and balances
  • Payroll, with the payroll ledger posting to the books
  • Recruitment, onboarding and offboarding
  • Performance, appraisals and staff discipline
  • Duty rosters, workload and teacher allocation
  • An employee self-service portal

What the school bought, holds and issued.

Requisition to purchase order to goods received to issue — with stock levels, suppliers and asset records that finance can actually settle against.

Store & Procurement in detail
  • Stock items, levels, movements and stock takes
  • Purchase requisitions and local purchase orders
  • Suppliers, goods received notes and three-way matching
  • Issues and requests from departments
  • Assets, maintenance and disposals
  • Store reports and valuation

Routes, vehicles, drivers and the learners on board.

Who is on which bus, who is driving it, what it cost to run, and what the parent owes for the term.

Transport in detail
  • Routes, stops and per-term transport fares
  • Vehicles, insurance, inspections and maintenance
  • Drivers, assignments, manifests and roll call
  • Fuel records and running-cost reports
  • Hired vehicles, relief cover and call-outs
  • A driver portal built for a phone
  • Learner pickups and guardian collection records

Also included

The rest of the school day.

Modules a school switches on when it needs them. Off by default, so nobody navigates past a department they do not have.

Attendance

Class registers and duty roll call, with absentees and their guardians' contacts in one list.

Timetable

Periods, class timetables and teacher schedules, built from the same subjects and staff.

Hostel & boarding

Dormitories, allocations, movement, welfare, inspections and boarding staff.

Library

Catalogue, loans, reservations, fines and digital resources.

Discipline & guidance

Incident records, merit tracking, and guidance and counselling sessions.

Reports & analytics

A command centre that reads across academics, finance, attendance and operations.
