Platform

A parent portal that answers the questions parents call about

The school office spends hours every week answering the same questions: what is my child’s balance, did my payment go through, when are the results out, what is the homework? WIK Scholar’s parent portal puts those answers on the guardian’s phone — one login for every child they have at the school.

Highlights

  • Fee statements, balances and M-Pesa payment from the phone
  • Results and report card downloads
  • Homework, the school diary and circulars with acknowledgement
  • Pickup codes, pocket-money statements and conduct timeline

Fees: see the balance, pay, get the receipt

Parents see each child’s fee statement and current balance, download the statement as a PDF, and pay through M-Pesa STK Push with live payment status. The payment posts to the ledger automatically, so the updated balance is there as soon as Safaricom confirms it.

Results, homework and the school diary

  • Exam results and CBC report cards, downloadable once the school releases them.
  • Homework split into outstanding and marked, with the teacher’s feedback.
  • School-wide notices, class circulars and personal notes in one diary — parents acknowledge each entry, and unacknowledged entries get a reminder SMS.
  • A conduct timeline with merits alongside any incidents; severe incidents are sent to guardians by SMS immediately.

Child safety from the parent’s phone

Guardians can request a one-time pickup code when someone else is collecting their child. The code is single-use, expires the same day, and is verified at the gate with the learner’s details on screen. For boarders, guardians can request exeat passes; for day and boarding learners alike, they can view the pocket-money statement and get a low-balance SMS.

Secure sign-in built for Kenyan phones

Parents activate their account against their child’s admission number with a one-time code sent to the phone number the school has on record. Sign-in is rate-limited and protected against account guessing, and parents only ever see their own children.

Frequently asked questions

Do parents need to install an app?

No. The parent portal runs in the phone’s browser and can be added to the home screen like an app. There is nothing to download from an app store.

Can one parent see several children?

Yes. A guardian with more than one child at the school sees all of them under a single login.

Can parents pay fees from the portal?

Yes. Parents pay by M-Pesa STK Push from the fees screen and see the payment status live; the balance updates automatically once M-Pesa confirms.
