What GuardAIn does

One record, from the first day of S1 to the university form in S6

Everything a school already knows about a student — marks, interests, attendance, results — turned into guidance a student and their family can act on.

Classroom & online classes

Teachers set assignments and mark them online; students hand in from their phone. Live online classes with audio, video and screen sharing — ideal for holiday revision.

Truth AI & study room

A helper on every page that finds anything in seconds, plus a notebook, dictionary, planner, focus timer and scientific calculator for students.

School fees

Fees per class, scholarships and bursaries, payments by cash, bank, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money or SchoolPay, receipts, and who has cleared at a glance.

Student welfare

Disclosed, simple warning signs — a big fall in marks, low attendance, missed exams — raise a flag for the counsellor to look at, and counsellors can raise a welfare concern to the school's head.

Academic tracking

Marks by hand or from a spreadsheet, graded the UNEB way. Subject trends term by term, and one report-card layout every school shares, with the school's own name and logo.

Career guidance

Four reports: S3 subject choices, S4 pathway (A-level or vocational), career fit, and S5–S6 university match — each option listed with the reasons behind it.

Counselling

Each counsellor sees their own caseload. Session notes are encrypted and seen only by the counsellor, with follow-up reminders so nobody falls through the gaps.

Parent engagement

Parents sign in with a one-time code sent to their phone — no password to forget — to give consent, read report cards and see guidance their child's counsellor has released.

University options

Programmes, essential subjects, cut-off points, fees and application windows — checked against each university's published list before any student is matched against them.

GuardAIn for universities

How it works

Three steps, one term

  1. 1

    The school sets up, families consent

    The school imports its class lists and invites parents. Nothing is assessed or reported for a student until a parent has agreed.

  2. 2

    Students take part, teachers enter marks

    Students complete short interest and personality questionnaires on any phone; teachers enter or upload marks as they already do.

  3. 3

    A counsellor reviews, the family reads

    GuardAIn scores the options and drafts a report. A counsellor checks and approves it before the student or parent ever sees it.

Privacy & safety

Guidance, not a verdict — and never without consent

Children's data deserves more care than any other. These are rules in the software, not promises in a brochure.

  • Consent first. Per purpose, recorded, and withdrawable at any time.
  • A person approves every report. The AI drafts; a counsellor decides.
  • No names to the AI. Drafting uses facts only — never a student's name or family budget.
  • Encrypted counselling notes, readable only by the student's counsellor.
  • Everything is logged. Schools can see who opened which record, and when.
  • Your data, your right. Download everything held about a student, or have it erased.

Questions

Good to know

Does the AI decide my child's future?

No. GuardAIn lists options with the reasons for each; a counsellor reviews and approves every report, and the report says plainly that it is guidance, not a verdict.

How do students and parents get an account?

Through their school. Students receive a sign-in slip; parents sign in with a code sent by SMS to the phone number the school holds for them.

Who can see counselling notes?

Only the student's assigned counsellor. Notes are encrypted, never included in reports or downloads, and are not seen by teachers, parents or the platform team.

Can a parent withdraw consent?

Yes, at any time, for each purpose separately. Withdrawal takes effect straight away and is recorded.

Where do the university cut-off points come from?

From each university's published lists — entered by our team or by the university itself — and checked by a named person before any student is matched against them.
