What EduX runs in your school
Terrain shapes schooling in Lesotho. Many pupils board because daily travel from the highlands is impractical, which means the school bills hostel fees alongside tuition and communicates with families who cannot easily come to the office to ask a question.
Both problems come down to reach. EduX puts hostel, tuition and transport charges on one record with a single balance, and gives parents an app showing attendance, marks and that balance — so a question does not require a journey down the mountain.

How schools in Lesotho are examined
National examinations in Lesotho are administered by the Examinations Council of Lesotho (ECoL), including the LGCSE.
EduX records marks under whichever grading scale your school uses and prints your own report cards. It does not submit entries to ECoL and does not replace any ministry system.
We serve schools across Lesotho
Setup, training and data migration are done entirely remotely, so where your school is makes no difference to the timeline or the cost.
Whether the school is in Maseru or a mountain district, all you need is a basic connection.
Six reasons EduX fits Lesotho specifically
- Hostels are a first-class case — Hostel fees, room allocation and day-scholar charges are part of the pupil record, not a separate book.
- Families in the highlands stay informed — Attendance, marks and the fee balance reach the parent in an app, so a family far away need not travel.
- Termly billing in maloti — Fees are structured per class and per term, with instalments and a live arrears list.
- No server in the school — No server, no UPS and no resident technician — hosting and backups are ours.
- Distance does not change setup — Activation and training are remote, so a mountain school is served on the same timeline and cost.
- Light on bandwidth — Screens load without heavy assets and open on a phone over mobile data.
How we start with your school
- Remote demo — A short online or WhatsApp session showing the system against your school's own situation — no visit, no commitment.
- We migrate your data — We take your existing Excel files or registers — pupils, fees, staff — and migrate them ourselves.
- Lesotho setup — Classes and streams, the termly fee structure in maloti, hostel and day-scholar charges, your receipt format, and your grading scale and report card layout.
- Staff training — Remote training for administration, the bursar's office and teachers, with recordings to refer back to when staff change.
- Go live — The school runs on the system, with support over WhatsApp through the term.
Questions from schools in Lesotho
Does it handle hostels and boarding pupils?
Yes. Hostel fees, room allocation and day-scholar charges sit on the same pupil record as tuition and transport, so one balance covers everything.
How do families far from the school keep track?
Through the parent app: attendance, marks, fee balance and announcements, without travelling to the office.
Do we need a server in the school?
No. Everything is cloud-based and opens in a browser.
Will it work on a weak connection?
Yes. The interface is light and designed for limited bandwidth, and can be opened from a phone on mobile data.
Does it support more than one campus?
Yes. All branches run from a single account, with separate reporting per branch and a consolidated report for the directors.
How long does setup take?
Setup, training and data migration are done remotely and begin as soon as we receive your school's data — there is no site visit.
Is there a mobile app for parents?
Yes, an app for parents and pupils on iOS and Android, plus the web portal for administration and teachers.
Who owns the school's data?
The school owns its data in full and can export it at any time in a usable format.
