What SchoolGaze is
SchoolGaze is a cloud-based web system for schools in Uganda, combining 21 modules for students, staff, teaching, finance, operations, messaging, and security. Academic tools support Uganda’s Primary (PLE), O-Level, and A-Level curricula, with exams, grading, and automatic report cards. Fees Management records payments, sends SMS reminders, and reconciles mobile and bank payments, including SchoolPay. Financial records can connect to Uganda Revenue Authority EFRIS for fiscal receipts, supplier e-invoices, and TIN validation. Parents receive SMS notifications, while parent-portal access is included on Growth and Enterprise plans. Every plan provides unlimited staff accounts, local support, data migration, and training. Student limits are 300 on Starter, 1,000 on Growth, and unlimited on Enterprise. The maker says data is encrypted in transit and at rest, automatically backed up, and protected by role controls and activity logs. Pricing starts at 1,500,000 UGX a year.
