Attendance without the daily paperwork.
Teachers mark attendance once. KalviOne updates the student record, the class register, attendance reports and parent notifications automatically.
At a glance
- Mobile-first marking. Present by default — tap only the exceptions. A class of 40 takes under a minute.
- Instant parent alerts. Absent and late students trigger a WhatsApp alert to the parent (email if they have no WhatsApp number).
- Live school view. Office sees which classes have marked and today's school-wide percentage.
- Ready for report cards. Monthly and term percentages are calculated for you.
02 · The problem
Attendance is taken every day, then retyped every month.
- Registers are filled by hand and totalled at month end — often from memory.
- Parents find out their child was absent days later, if at all.
- The office cannot tell which classes have not submitted attendance yet today.
- Monthly percentages for report cards are calculated manually in Excel.
03 · Why the problem exists
It's not your staff. It's the setup.
- Paper is the system of recordData on paper can't be searched, totalled or shared without someone retyping it.
- No link to parentsInforming parents is a separate task — a phone call that rarely happens on a busy morning.
- No live viewManagement only sees attendance when someone compiles a report.
04 · The KalviOne solution
Mark once. Everything else updates.
The teacher opens their class on the phone, taps absentees (everyone else is present by default) and submits. The marks are saved against each student, totals roll up to class and school, and parents of absent students are notified.
