How it works

The school day screens

Each person at a school or daycare starts on their own screen after signing in, with the day's work on it: My day, School today, the Fees office, Gate and passes, Check-in or Admissions.

Find it
Today, then My day, or search my day in Kila

At a school, people do not start on the home page. Kila opens each person’s own screen, under Today in the menu, with what they need to do now. The owner, the accountant and the auditor start on the home page.

My day is made for a phone: the term and the week, the school’s next events, then what the person has to do today.

My day for Esther Chepkoech, class teacher of Grade 7 East: Registers and roll calls (1), Mark sheets open with her Mathematics sheets (2), and My class: Grade 7 East with who is absent today, the report card comments to write and Message the class's parents (3).My day for Esther Chepkoech, class teacher of Grade 7 East: Registers and roll calls (1), Mark sheets open with her Mathematics sheets (2), and My class: Grade 7 East with who is absent today, the report card comments to write and Message the class's parents (3).
  1. Registers and roll calls: each one to take today, with Take it until it is taken. See Take the register.
  2. Mark sheets open: the sheets for open exams, with the due date and how many marks are in. See Enter marks.
  3. My class, for a class teacher: Absent today:, anyone away three school days or more, the report card comments to write, and Message the class’s parents.

A matron also sees passes and the sick bay; the transport officer the bus runs.

School today is the head’s view of the whole school today: Registers taken, Present, Away 3 days or more and Fees in today at the top, then the cards below.

School today for Josphat Kiprono, head teacher at Bright Minds Academy: Registers by class with the class teacher and who is absent (1), Absent today (2), and Marks with Remind beside the open exam (3).School today for Josphat Kiprono, head teacher at Bright Minds Academy: Registers by class with the class teacher and who is absent (1), Absent today (2), and Marks with Remind beside the open exam (3).
  1. Registers: every class, its class teacher, how many are absent, and whether it is taken.
  2. Absent today: each learner absent today, with their class.
  3. Marks: “Open exams, and the teachers still entering.” Remind sends those teachers a note; Kila says Reminded and how many teachers, and skips anyone already reminded today.

Below them: Report cards to sign, with Sign off, and Welfare and the gate: the sick bay’s visits with their outcome, never the complaint, and the learners out on passes and visitors on site.
