The situation
Technical confidence was the first obstacle: teachers, students and parents were largely not used to software, so anything that required training would not have been adopted. Underneath that sat the operational problems — parents had little or no knowledge of their child's progress and rarely heard from the school, departments duplicated the same work by hand, and the administration was carrying admissions, examinations, enquiries, record-keeping and reporting manually.
What Edumia did
Edumia was implemented across 33 schools in the region, automating the tasks each department was doing by hand and moving admissions, examinations, enquiries, records and reporting onto one system. The parent app was the deliberate starting point, because the gap it closed was the one parents felt.
What changed
Parents could follow their child's progress directly, and the same information no longer had to be retyped by three departments. The implementation also had to work with the technology comfort level in the schools rather than assume it away.
Other institutions
Universal Entrance Coaching Institute
A coaching institute that had no way to run classes or exams under lockdown kept operating — classes, mock tests and admissions included — on a system and an app under its own name.
