In a country where over 13 million children are out of school and private schools battle delayed fee payments, teacher burnout, and manual reporting, the stakes are high.
Most school owners still manage operations with pen, paper and WhatsApp.One Nigerian edtech startup-Afrilearn is helping schools leapfrog into the future seamlessly.
Head of Product and Growth at Afrilearn Wale Opemipo Adeniyi said, “we knew schools didn’t need another dashboard. They needed freedom. So we built something that saves time, improves learning, and grows income, all in one place.”
Afrilearn is an AI-powered learning and school management platform helping over 3 million students, teachers, and schools across Africa digitise operations, boost performance, and personalise learning.
It combines School Management System (SMS) which Automates attendance, exams, payments, results, analytics, and communication with K–12 Content Library widely known as Nigeria’s richest collection of ready-made lesson notes, videos, past questions, coding tutorials alongside AI Insights that detects struggling students for early intervention and prepares them for lifelong success with overwhelming testimonials of improved learning outcomes and school growth.
This Nigerian software is quietly powering a school growth, one student, one teacher, one school at a time.
Fatima Musa, a seasoned school principal, is logging into her school’s dashboard on a dusty smartphone. With just a few taps, she sees the full picture, today’s attendance report, depending fee payments, top-performing students, and one red alert, a student who’s been
absent all week. What she’s using isn’t a foreign software. It’s Afrilearn SMS, an AI-powered school management and learning platform built in Nigeria, for African schools.
“Before Afrilearn, I was overwhelmed,” Fatima recalls. “Now, I save over 12 hours every week. And our enrolment has grown by 30%.”
Her school is one of over many across Nigeria quietly adopting Afrilearn SMS to solve the real, gritty problems that have held schools back for decades.
