From Chaos to Order

Green Valley School in Ikeja, Lagos, was drowning in paperwork. Here's how they turned things around.

The Challenge

With 450 students across nursery, primary, and secondary sections, the administrative team was overwhelmed:

• Report cards took 2 weeks to prepare each term
• Fee tracking was done in multiple Excel sheets
• Parents constantly called asking about payments
• Student records were scattered across notebooks

The Solution

The school implemented Cportal in January 2024. The results were immediate:

Week One

All student records were digitized and centralized. Teachers could now access information instantly.

Week Two

Parents received login credentials and could check fee balances online, reducing phone calls by 70%.

First Term End

Report cards that previously took 2 weeks were completed in 3 days.

The Results

Time Saved: 20+ hours per week across the admin team Parent Satisfaction: Increased significantly with online access Fee Collection: Improved by 15% due to transparent tracking Teacher Morale: Better, as they spent less time on paperwork

In Their Words

"Cportal gave us our lives back. We're teachers, not data entry clerks. Now we can focus on what we're passionate about - educating children." - Mrs. Adebayo, School Administrator

Key Takeaways

1. Digital transformation doesn't have to be complicated
2. Parent communication improves with transparency
3. Time saved on admin can be redirected to student care
4. Staff morale improves when tedious tasks are automated
