  1. Run the whole school from one place

    Silentech Schools: registers, marks, report cards, messages and your school's website in one system.

  2. Take the register on a phone

    Teachers mark attendance in under a minute, even with no signal. Changes send themselves when the phone is back online.

  3. Enter marks once

    The gradebook keeps every class test and exam, and works out each student's result the way your school's scheme says.

  4. Report cards come from the same marks

    Teachers write remarks, the head approves, and families read the finished report card.

  5. Parents hear, even without data

    Notices and alerts go out as text messages, so a parent without a data bundle still gets them.

  6. Your data stays yours

    Download every record as spreadsheets and files, any time, including if your account is ever made read-only.

  7. See it with your school in mind

    Ask for a demo at schools.silentech.live

Everything a school runs on

Each area works on its own and shares the same students, classes and staff, so nobody types a name twice.

  • Lessons and materials

    Teachers share notes, files and links with their classes, set assignments and give quizzes.

    • A question bank teachers can reuse from term to term
    • Assignments handed in and marked in the same place
    • Competency records and signed logbooks for technical programmes
    • Students sign in with a PIN from the school, never an email address
  • Records and attendance

    Enrol students, place them in classes and houses, take registers and keep the conduct record.

    • Staff see only the students they teach or look after
    • Boarding houses, dormitories, beds and exeats
    • A promotion plan you check before the year changes
  • Marks and report cards

    Set your grading scheme, enter marks in a grid and compile the term's reports. Nothing reaches parents until the school releases it.

    • Continuous assessment and exam weights you define
    • A mark changed after the window closes keeps its reason on record
    • Remarks from class teachers and the head, then PDF reports parents open on a phone
  • Parents and messages

    Parents sign in with their phone number and a code sent by text, then see each child's attendance, results, notices and calendar.

    • Texts for absences, exeats and safety alerts, sent through Hubtel
    • Notices to a class, a house or the whole school
    • Parents can stop texts whenever they like
  • Fees on approved items

    Only items your school has approved can be charged, and a second person must approve each one with its reference.

    • Bills, pay links and receipts that anyone can check on the school's website
    • Online payment goes into your school's own Hubtel account once you connect it
    • Silentech never holds your school's money
  • Your school's website

    Every school gets a public website with news, events, programmes, staff and admissions enquiries, edited from the same system.

    • Students appear only with a guardian's consent
    • Light pages, and a lite mode for visitors who save data
    • Your own address, once you register it
  • Timetables

    Set up bells, rooms and subject loads, draft a timetable automatically, adjust it by hand with clashes shown, then publish it.

    • Teachers see their own week, and students see their class's
    • Cover for absent teachers, with free colleagues suggested
    • Print on A4 or export to a spreadsheet
  • Forms and surveys

    Build consent forms, feedback rounds and staff surveys, and send families a link by text.

    • Families answer without an account
    • Anonymous rounds for honest feedback
    • Photos and files can be attached to answers

Built for the connection you have

A weak signal and a shared phone are normal. The platform is built around both.

  • Registers and marks work offline

    Teachers take attendance and enter marks with no signal. Changes send themselves when the phone is back online, and a clash goes back to the person to settle.

  • Phone first, and light

    Screens are laid out for a phone before a desktop. Schools' public websites keep pages small and have a lite mode for visitors who save data.

  • Texts reach families without data

    Absences, exeats and safety alerts go out as text messages, so a parent without a data bundle still hears.

  • Nothing stays on a shared device

    A student's session, and a staff member's on a computer marked as shared, keep data in memory only and wipe it at sign-out.

Your school's data stays your school's

Most of what a school holds is about children. We treat it that way.

  • You decide, we process

    Silentech works on your school's instructions under a written agreement. It does not sell the data or use it for advertising.

  • Export everything, any time

    Download all your records as spreadsheets and files, whenever you want, including if your account is ever made read-only.

  • Held in the EU

    Records sit in Amsterdam with our host, not in Ghana. The data protection page names every company that handles them.

  • Seen by the right people

    Access follows each person's job. Sensitive openings are logged, and the log cannot be edited.

How a school starts

  1. Ask for a demo

    We show you the platform on a demonstration school and answer your questions.

  2. We set up your school

    Silentech creates your school's address and invites your head. Subjects, programmes, houses and the calendar go in from a file you give us.

  3. Your team joins

    Staff, students and parents are added from spreadsheets you check in full before anything is saved.

See it with your own school in mind

Tell us your school's name, its level and roughly how many students it has. We reply to arrange a demo.

This opens your email app. This website sends and stores nothing.

Sign in to your school

Staff, students and parents sign in at the school's own address.

The first part of your school's address. For dabokpa.silentech.live, type dabokpa.

If the page does not open, check the spelling or ask your school's office for the address.
