Kolab Education · Lekol In build
Every child accounted for, every parent at ease.
Kolab Education runs the register, the timetable, the fees and the gate for schools, tuition centres and training providers. Attendance a parent sees on WhatsApp, a pickup log that answers the safety question, and instalments in rupees with proper receipts.
- Attendance a parent sees on WhatsApp: "Anya arrived 08:12"
- A pickup log that records who is authorised and who collected
- Fees and instalments in rupees, with receipts and polite arrears reminders
- Tuition batches, timetables and waiting lists in one register
Made for
The copybook, the cash box and the gate, replaced kindly
Education in Mauritius runs far beyond the school bell: tuition centres in every town, pre-primaries, music schools, training rooms. Most of it runs on copybooks, cash and a teacher's memory, and mostly that works, until a parent asks exactly who collected their child, or which of the instalments were actually paid.
Kolab Education keeps the register properly. Students with guardians and emergency contacts. Attendance marked in seconds, with a WhatsApp to the parent the moment their child arrives. A pickup log at the gate that knows who is authorised. Fees in rupee instalments with receipts, and the 16:00 Grade 9 maths batch with its capacity, its register and its waiting list.
It is in build, and its heart already exists: our school-attendance brick, with the parent pickup log, is built and working. The build wraps fees, batches, timetables and reports around it, with founding schools and tuition centres shaping what ships first.
Starting from a working attendance brick
Kolab Education is in build, but the part parents care most about already exists and works: attendance with a parent pickup log.
- School attendance brick: class registers and a parent pickup log, built
- Fees, receipts and reminders on the same rupee documents as the rest of the family
- Batch and timetable patterns from our booking and register bricks
- Teacher hours link to Kolab HR for part-time tutor payroll

A closer look
How Kolab Education feels day to day
The first question parents ask is safety
Every child has an authorised collector list, with photos. At the gate, each collection is logged against it: who came, at what time, for which child. An unlisted collector triggers a phone call, not a guess.
- Authorised collectors per child, with photos
- Every collection logged with person and time
- An unlisted collector triggers a call, never a guess
Arrived 08:12, and mum knows
The teacher marks a class in under a minute, one tap per child. Families that opt in get the arrival WhatsApp straight away, and unexplained absences are flagged for a follow-up call before mid-morning.
- One tap per child, a class marked in under a minute
- The arrival WhatsApp is opt-in, per family
- Unexplained absences flag for a follow-up call
Instalments and receipts, out of the copybook
Fee plans are set per class or per batch, in rupees, with instalments most families actually use. Cash, Juice or bank transfer, every payment is receipted on the spot, and arrears reminders go out politely before they become awkward.
- Fee plans per class or per batch, with instalments
- Cash, Juice or transfer, receipted on the spot
- Arrears reminders on WhatsApp, polite and on time
The 16:00 batch, full, with a fair queue
Tuition runs in batches, and Lekol treats them as first-class: capacity, a register per session, fees attached, and a waiting list that messages the next family the moment a seat opens. Teacher hours per batch flow to payroll through Kolab HR.
- Capacity per batch, a register per session
- Waiting lists message the next family when a seat opens

Local by design
Made for how Mauritius learns
Private tuition is enormous here, and it runs on copybooks and cash. Lekol keeps the warmth and adds the record.
Tuition first
Batches, per-batch fees, waiting lists and tutor hours: the tuition centre is a first-class citizen, not an afterthought.
Safety, answered
The pickup log answers a parent's first question with a record, not a memory: who is authorised, who collected, at what time.
Trilingual parents
Messages go out in English, French or Kreol Morisien per family, so every parent reads comfortably.
Cyclone closures
When schools close on a warning, every parent gets the message at once, and the day is recorded correctly in the register.
Cash, recorded
Fees still arrive in cash here. Receipts print or WhatsApp instantly, and the drawer reconciles at closing time.
Children's data, DPA 2017
Records about children get the strictest handling: role-based access, retention rules, and exports for parents on request.
Boost at school
Gentle recognition for the staffroom, and for classes where the school chooses to use it.
Register streaks
Teachers who mark every register on time build streaks the head can see and thank.
Batch stars
Batches with steady attendance earn class badges, celebrated on the noticeboard.
Staffroom kudos
Peer kudos between teachers turn into points, and points into small rupee-budgeted rewards.
In the wild
What it looks like in real businesses
Eleven batches a week, fees in instalments, and the 16:00 Grade 9 maths waiting list messages the next family the moment a seat opens.
Every arrival WhatsApped to parents, every collection logged against the authorised list, and an unlisted aunt means a phone call, not a guess.
Short courses run as batches with registers, certificates issue from the same record, and attendance evidence is ready for HRDC paperwork.
