The challenge
Teachers juggled four tools for homework, grades and messaging. Parents missed updates, and the old servers slowed to a crawl during exams.
What we did
- 01Designed one platform for courses, assignments, grading and parent messaging.
- 02Built offline-friendly lesson views for students with patchy home internet.
- 03Migrated hosting to AWS with autoscaling for exam weeks.
- 04Trained staff at every campus before the new term.
Results
- Students onboarded in one term
- 8,000+
- Less admin time for teachers
- 35%
- Uptime through exam season
- 99.9%
“Our teachers stopped asking which tool to use. There's only one now.”
