School Management System for Nigeria Schools
Nigerian Educational Research and Development Council (NERDC) + Universal Basic Education (UBE) · Over 50 million students enrolled, making Nigeria the largest education system in Africa
Overview
Nigeria operates the largest education system in Africa, with over 50 million enrolled students across roughly 80,000 primary schools and 30,000 secondary schools. The Nigerian Educational Research and Development Council (NERDC) sets curriculum frameworks under the Universal Basic Education (UBE) Act, which mandates nine years of free basic education. Students sit the Junior Secondary Certificate Examination (JSCE) after JSS 3, and the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) or NECO Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) at the end of SSS 3. Nigerian school administrators contend with high student volumes, multi-campus coordination, and the complexity of collecting fees from families across state lines. RedeemOS provides a scalable, cloud-based foundation for Nigerian schools seeking to modernise administration without heavy IT infrastructure investment.
Common Administrative Challenges

Staff payroll complicated by PAYE (Pay As You Earn) tax and NSITF contribution calculations
