Twelve modules. One school.

Every part of Kilasi shares the same learners, classes and fees, so nothing is typed twice and every report agrees.

Students & admissions

Every learner's record, parents and history in one place.

  • Admit learners with photo, LIN, house, residence and previous school
  • Parents and guardians with phone numbers, fee payer and portal login
  • Import a whole class from Excel, with every mistake shown before anything is saved
  • Transfers, withdrawals and graduates kept in history
