Marks entry
Is entering marks clear and quick?
Currently in closed testing
Teacher testing phase
Become a School in Stats tester
School in Stats is currently being tested with teachers. We're looking for teachers willing to try the app, use it with realistic marks workflows, and share honest feedback.
You don't need technical skills. Use the app the way you normally process marks, then tell us what works, what doesn't and what could be better.
Why we're testing
Built with teachers, not just for them
School in Stats handles something teachers can't afford to get wrong: learners' marks and the reports that go home to parents. Before a wider release, we want the app tested by the people who do this work every term. Their feedback shows us where calculations, screens or reports need to change.
Closed testing lets us fix problems early, with a group of teachers who can tell us what actually happens in their schools.
Who we're looking for
- Class teachers
- Subject teachers
- Heads of department and academic coordinators
- School administrators
- Anyone who regularly processes marks and prepares reports

How do I give feedback?
Use the tester form, and share quick feedback, questions and screenshots in the WhatsApp tester group.
Is School in Stats publicly available?

What happens after I submit the tester form?
