Rowsta School
Run your school, not the paperwork
Know which families have paid, take registers in class and send out report cards the head has checked. For schools from nursery and KG to senior secondary, in Ghana and Nigeria.
- First term half price
- Parents never pay
- Cedis or naira
Your office spends the term chasing fees instead of running the school.
Bank and mobile money alerts checked one by one, registers on paper, report cards written late at night, and parents calling to ask the same questions. Rowsta puts the money, the registers and the report cards in one place.
What you get
The work your office does every day, done once and kept on record.
Fees you can see
Every payment against the right child, with a receipt.
Registers on a phone
Teachers mark the class, and the office sees the day.
Report cards, checked
The head reviews every card before it goes out.
Each person, their part
Bursar, head and teachers see only what they need.

Your school, wherever you are
Rowsta runs in the browser, so a teacher marks the class on the phone in her hand and the head checks the day’s registers from home. There is nothing to install and no special computer to buy.
Why owners love it

Type a child’s name, a parent’s or a page’s, and go straight there.

The right staff hear when an incident is reported.
Works on the phones you have
Ordinary mobile data or Wi-Fi is enough, in any browser.

- Each member of staff sees only what their role allows
- Your school’s records kept apart from everyone else’s on Rowsta
- Encrypted connections between your browser and Rowsta
- Passwords stored only in a scrambled form
