Remora Schools

The office of a private school — fees, register and report cards that add up.

For primary schools, colleges and higher institutes in Cameroon, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and francophone West and Central Africa — in English or French, in your own currency. Cash at the desk. Marks that rank the way your report cards print. Parents reached on the phone they already have.

Scroll — the board pack, the receipt, the household, a child who still owes.

Why the balance is what it is — charged, paid, still open — in date order.

First, the money

Know the collection as it stands

In most schools the fee position lives in a ledger, three exercise books and the bursar's memory. Here it is one screen, and it is still right at four in the afternoon on the day a father asks.

  • Every balance, per child and per class

    Charged, paid, still open — for one child, for Form 5A, for the whole school. The figure the bursar can read out in the meeting, not a total that has to be unpicked first.

  • A numbered receipt at the desk

    Take the money, print the receipt, hand it over. The number on the paper is the number in the record, and a correction is a void plus a new line — so the ledger a parent was shown in October still exists in July.

  • One payment, four children

    A father pays once for four. The money is applied to the four charges it actually settles, so the household is one line, not four.

Then the classroom

The paper that goes home

Primary, college and higher do not share a form. The office prints the document each arm already knows.

  • Class 6, not Form 5

    Reading and handwriting sit next to mathematics. Rank and a remark still print. It is the same bulletin article, with the subjects a primary class actually sits.

  • Form 5 and 3e, on their own scales

    Anglophone papers mark out of 100. Francophone papers mark out of 20. Coefficients belong to the level. Ranking is 1, 2, 2, 4 — the convention a report card actually prints.

  • Course results, not a moyenne

    A higher institute records ACC210 and ECO201, each out of 20. There is no class rank and no mention. Credits live on the registration, not on this sheet.

For teachers

Their class, or their lecture

The register is taken on the phone they already have. A primary morning, a college class and a lecture session are not the same sheet.

  • The daily class register

    Present, late, excused — a letter in a square, the way the exercise book already works. Counted in days or in hours, according to the arm.

  • A course session

    Higher institutes take the roll on the offering — ACC210, not Form 5A. Everyone starts present. The session is the unit.

  • Marks when the sequence closes

    They go in once. A closed sequence cannot be quietly edited after the report card has gone home.

See this for your school

Your country, your system

The levels, exams, words and money your school already uses

A school in Lagos does not count sequences, and a lycée in Abidjan does not print Form 5. Each country's levels, standard subjects and exam years come ready — and the screens use its words.

Cameroon's anglophone and francophone ladders run side by side in one school. Any country can add a level of its own.

Higher institutes

Programmes and semesters, not classes and terms

An institute registers students on courses, marks a CA and an exam each semester, and bills tuition by programme level. It gets its own screens, in its own words.

  • Programmes and levels

    BTS, HND, Licence, Bachelor, Master — added from sixteen worked examples, with levels named the way your country names them: Licence 1, Level 100, Year 1.

  • Course registration

    Registration windows per semester, a whole level registered on its courses in one go, capacity and an optional hold while fees are owed.

  • CA and exam

    Each semester has continuous assessment and an exam. Lecturers take course registers and enter marks; the office publishes.

  • A link for each student

    Fees, results, attendance and registration on the student's own phone. No account, no app.

Setting up

Set up in an afternoon, not a term

After the first sign-in, the school is walked through what to do, in order, and each step says what it needs first.

  1. Levels and year

    Tick what you teach: the standard years of your system are added. Open the year: its terms or semesters and their assessment periods are made for you.

  2. Classes and subjects

    Classes for every level in one press — Form 1A, 6ème B, JSS 2 — and your system's standard subjects at their usual coefficients.

  3. Staff and teaching

    Each teacher signs in with their own phone number and finds their own classes. Say who teaches what once.

  4. Pupils and fees

    Admit one child, or bring the class list you already keep in Excel. Write the price list, assess the term, and the first receipt prints the same day.

The spreadsheet you already have

The importer reads messy files — merged titles, a TOTAL line, dates written three ways — and shows every problem, row by row, before anything is saved.

Download it free

And the parents

Reached on the phone they already have

A private link for each family

The office sends each family its own link — the receipt, the absences, the report card — on Nyocte, the official communication partner, or on WhatsApp. Sending on Nyocte by itself, the moment the office records it, comes next.

A link if they are not

The same facts still open in the browser already on the phone. Nothing to install, no account on Remora, no password to lose, and no data spent in an app store.

One family, and nothing else

A parent never gets a login into your school. A link shows that family's own receipt and balance — never a class list, never another child's marks, never your fee register.

Your address

Your school gets its own page

The name, the motto, the sections and levels you offer, the campus, the term dates, and whether admissions are open. It stays off until you switch it on.

yourschool.remoraschools.com

It shows no child. No names, no admission numbers, no marks, no averages, no attendance, no balances, no photographs of children. That limit is written into the query the page reads from, not into the page, so a later redesign cannot lift it by accident.

How you run it

Hosted by Remora, or on your own computer or server

The same application. Two ways to hold it.

Hosted

We run the servers, the backups and the updates. Your school gets a page at yourschool.remoraschools.com. The bursary works in the browser already on the phone.

On your own computer or server

Download it for Windows or Mac, or install it on a Linux server. Other computers and phones on the school's network open it too, and the office keeps working when the internet is down. Every desk is free for 30 days; after that the daily register stays free for good, and a licence covers the desks you use. Nothing is ever locked: records can always be opened, printed and exported.

Official communication partner

Nyocte, the official communication partner

The office sends each family its own link — the receipt after a payment, the absences from the register, the report card when it is published — and Nyocte is where it goes first. Sending on Nyocte by itself, the moment the office records it, comes next. The link opens on any phone, on Nyocte or not.

Get Nyocte
Nyocte

Plainly

What it does not do — yet

Schools have been sold enough software that did not exist. So, before you ask:

  • No automatic sending yet. The office sends each family its link from its own phone; sending on Nyocte by itself comes next.
  • No online payment. Money is taken at the desk — cash, or a mobile money or bank transfer the bursar records — and receipted there.
  • No SMS. Nothing goes through the network operators, so there is no per-message cost to budget for.
  • No mobile app. It is a website, built for the phone in the bursary — Android or iPhone — and a slow connection.
  • No virtual classroom and no e-learning.

Everything above this line is what the system does today. When one of these ships it will be described the same way.

Questions

What schools ask before they start

Can we set it up ourselves?
Yes. Download it, or ask for a hosted school, and the guided setup walks you through levels, the year, classes, subjects, staff and pupils. If you would rather, Remora sets it up with you.
Which countries does it work for?
Cameroon (anglophone and francophone), Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and francophone West and Central Africa — Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal, Benin, Togo, Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, Guinea, Gabon, Congo, Chad and the Central African Republic. Each comes with its levels, exam years and standard subjects; a school elsewhere starts from a standard list and adds its own levels.
Does it work in French?
Yes. Every screen is in English and in French, and each person chooses. Report cards print in the language of the section, whatever the language of the screen.
Which currency?
The school's own: FCFA, naira, cedi, shilling and every other African currency. Receipts write the amount in words, in that currency.
Does it work for universities and higher institutes?
Yes. Programmes and levels, two semesters with a CA and an exam, course registration, programme tuition and course fees, and a private link for each student.
What does it cost?
Every desk is free for 30 days, and the daily register stays free for good. After that, a licence or hosting is quoted by the size of the school. No fee per pupil, and no commission on the fees you collect.
Do parents install an app?
No. The office sends each family a private link — on Nyocte or WhatsApp — and it opens in the browser already on the phone.
What if the connection drops?
A register taken without a connection is kept on the phone and sent on its own when the connection returns. On the school's own computer, the office works on the school network even when the internet is down.
