The intelligent school platform

Your school. Understood.

See. Understand. Act.

BAINI connects the everyday records of a school — registers, lessons, formative evidence, marks — into evidence your leaders can trust, and shows them what needs attention next.

For schools running Kenyan CBE, Cambridge and integrated programmes — introduced through a phased rollout.

Why BAINI

Schools are full of records. Leaders need understanding.

Without a connected record

Registers on paper, marks in spreadsheets, evidence in exercise books. By the time a report is printed, nobody can say which figure came from where — or what is still missing.

With BAINI

Each record is captured once, reviewed by the person responsible for it, and combined under the school's own policies. A leader can open any number and see the evidence behind it.

How it works

Records → Evidence → Understanding → Decisions.

Every BAINI workflow moves information one step further along this path. Nothing is inferred that the school has not recorded and approved.

    Records

    The everyday work of a school, captured once where it happens.

    Evidence

    Records become evidence when the right person reviews and approves them.

    Understanding

    Evidence is combined under the school's own policies, with the source of every figure shown.

  4. Act: 04

    Decisions

    Leaders act on what is ready — and see exactly what is not, and why.

One school day in BAINI

The same workflows your school already runs — connected.

08:30 · Records

Know which registers are in before the first lesson ends.

Class teachers submit registers on the web or the BAINI Android app. Leaders see what is outstanding, by class, without chasing anyone.

Week 4 · Evidence

Formative evidence, approved by the right person.

Teachers record evidence for every learner on the roster. Heads of department approve only the classes they supervise — the boundary is enforced by the server, not just hidden in the screen.

Term end · Understanding

Report cards that explain themselves.

Before publishing, BAINI checks every class against its readiness gates. Each report records which weighting applied — this class, this grade or the whole school — and prints it on the card.

Publication · Decisions reach families

Guardians see what the school has published — nothing more.

A guardian sees only the current published report for their own children. If the school corrects a report, it reissues a new version; the earlier one is withdrawn, not quietly edited.

Built around roles

Five people. One version of the truth.

Each role sees the work that is theirs, with authority scoped to the classes and responsibilities they hold.

Start the day knowing where to look.

  1. 07:50

    Opens the dashboard

    Registers, approvals and report readiness are already summarised, with what needs attention first.

  2. 10:30

    Checks Term 3 readiness

    Sees 9 of 10 classes ready and exactly which task is holding 4 East back.

  3. 15:00

    Publishes with confidence

    Publishes the ready classes; guardians see only the new, current version.

  • Leadership and academic dashboards
  • Report cards with versioned publication
  • Daily attendance and oversight

Set the rules once. See them applied everywhere.

  1. Setup

    Defines grading and weighting

    School-wide, per grade or per class — the most specific applies, and conflicts are refused, not guessed.

  2. Weekly

    Follows formative coverage

    Sees which classes have evidence approved and which are behind.

  3. Reporting

    Reads the provenance

    Every report says which configuration produced it: this class, this grade or the whole school.

  • Assessment and school-owned grading
  • Report configuration provenance
  • Formative evidence and approval

Record it once, in the room where it happens.

  1. 08:00

    Takes the register

    On the web or the BAINI Android app — offline if the connection drops, synced securely later.

  2. Lesson

    Records formative evidence

    Marks each learner against the rubric; the roster shows who is still to be assessed.

  3. Week end

    Hands over for review

    Completed evidence goes to the head of department who supervises the class.

  • Daily attendance and oversight
  • Teacher Android app
  • Formative evidence and approval

Keep the school's foundations accurate.

  1. Term start

    Admits and enrols

    Applications, learner profiles, guardians and class placement in one flow.

  2. Ongoing

    Manages staff and roles

    Invites staff, assigns roles and the classes each leader supervises.

  3. As needed

    Runs optional modules

    Finance, library and transport are switched on only if the school uses them.

  • Admissions and enrolment
  • Staff, roles and scoped permissions
  • Fees and finance

See your child's results when the school publishes them.

  1. Sign-up

    Links to the school

    Registers with a phone number; the school confirms the relationship before anything is shown.

  2. Results

    Opens the published report

    Only the current published version for their own children — never drafts.

  3. Corrections

    Gets the corrected version

    If the school reissues a report, the earlier version is replaced, not edited in place.

  • Guardian access to published reports
  • Parent Android access
  • Report cards with versioned publication

All role journeys

Curriculum flexibility

One platform for the curricula your school actually runs.

BAINI's academic structures are curriculum-neutral underneath, so grading, reporting and intelligence follow each programme's own rules.

How BAINI handles curricula
  • Kenyan CBE

    Pre-Primary, Primary and Junior School, with school-owned performance-level policies and SBA workflows.

  • Cambridge

    Primary and Lower Secondary stages, Checkpoint, IGCSE (A*–G and 9–1) and AS & A Level reporting.

  • Integrated programmes

    Schools running more than one programme keep each one's grading and reporting separate.

Security and isolation

Your school's data stays your school's.

  • A separate database per school

    Each school's operational data lives in its own database, not in a shared table.

  • Sessions bound to your address

    A session from one school is refused at another school's address.

  • Scoped authority

    Roles and class assignments decide what each person can see and approve.

  • Audit and versioning

    Approvals, configuration changes and report revisions leave a record.

BAINI does not yet hold an independent security certification. What we do, and what we do not claim

One platform for the whole school

Everything a school runs on, connected.

Academics, administration, finance, families and the intelligence that ties them together — one record per school, under the school's own policies.

BAINI is being introduced through a phased rollout. Features, integrations and availability are confirmed with each school before onboarding.
