Digitising School Operations for a Mogadishu Academy
CloudSom Technology replaced paper-based attendance, grading and fee collection with SomSchool — a unified administration platform adopted across the academy's campuses.
The Challenge
The academy managed admissions, attendance, grading and fee collection across multiple campuses using spreadsheets and paper records. Staff spent hours each week reconciling data, parents had no visibility into attendance or fees, and reporting to the board was slow and error-prone.
Our Solution
We deployed SomSchool, our school management platform, and tailored it to the academy's workflows. The rollout covered admissions, attendance via mobile, grading, automated fee invoicing, and a parent portal. We migrated legacy student records and ran hands-on onboarding for administrators and teachers.
The Results
Within a term, administrative time fell by over 60%, fee collection improved, and 1,500+ parents gained real-time visibility into attendance and balances. Board reporting that previously took days now runs in minutes.
