School fee collection and gate software for Nigerian schools

Protect your school revenue
and secure it reliably

Fees paid on time. Children released to the right adult.

FOR HEADS & ADMINISTRATORS

Limestone connects fees, pickup, visitors, incidents and notices for Nigerian nursery, primary and secondary schools, with gate verification that keeps working when the internet is unavailable.

For nursery, primary and secondary schools.
The gate

Verified in seconds.
Online or offline.

Pickup codes are verified at the gate in seconds, even when the internet is unavailable. Each pickup is recorded with the authorised adult's name and the time, so the school always has a clear record of who collected the child.

Result first. Then why.

Five records that keep
the school day clear.

Nursery, primary and secondary schools. Fees, pickup, visitors, incidents and notices, on one record.

Signature feature

Pickup time, without
the confusion.

At pickup, every child should leave with the right authorised person. With Limestone, parents create pickup codes for approved guardians or drivers, and staff verify them at the gate in seconds.

Every verified pickup is recorded with the child's name and the time. No phone calls to confirm. No relying on memory. No paper pickup log. Gate verification continues even when the internet is unavailable. When the connection returns, the records sync automatically.

  • Parents create pickup codes from the StoneCircle app
  • Codes can be set for regular or one-time pickup
  • Staff verify the authorised pickup at the gate in seconds
  • Every pickup stays on record, even when verification happens offline

Role-based access

Every role in your school
sees only what matters.

StoneCircle Admin gives each role in your school the view they need and nothing more. Parents don't see other parents. Teachers don't see finances. Compliance is built in.

Role 01

Head & Principal

Strategic overview. Pickup statistics, incident trends, parent engagement, fee collection. The data the Board wants at the next governance meeting.

Role 02

Administrator

Day-to-day operations. Visitor approvals, pickup verification, incident workflow, parent broadcasts. The view your school office actually runs from.

Role 03

Class teacher

Their class, their parents, their incident reports. No view into administration or finances, but everything they need for the children in their care.

Role 04

Parent / Guardian

Their child's pickup codes, school notices, fee statements, and the panic button. Designed to feel like a private channel to the school, not a public group.

And the money side: school fees, levies, and excursion payments can run through the same platform, with every payment collected, receipted and reconciled like estate dues.

Safeguarding records
your auditor can trust.

Nigerian schools are increasingly regulated. Limestone produces the records your safeguarding policy already requires without adding a paperwork burden.

01 · TRAIL

Complete audit trail.

Every entry, exit, incident and approval is timestamped, attributed and exportable. Ready for the next governance review or inspection.

02 · DATA

Student data stays in Nigeria.

Hosted on infrastructure in Nigeria, encrypted in transit and at rest. The school owns the data; we are the processor. NDPR-aligned by design.

03 · INCIDENTS

Incident reports your policy expects.

Incident workflow templates align with Nigerian school safeguarding norms. When something happens, the teacher opens an incident record with photos, witness names and the time of occurrence. The school nurse adds her notes, and the parent receives a timestamped summary. The head can pull every entry and acknowledgment within seconds. When the auditor or regulator asks, there is one export, one file and one version of the truth.

ID
Staff access, handled too.

Teachers and non-teaching staff authenticate at the gate with ID cards or biometrics, clock-in and clock-out are recorded automatically, and visitor escorts are assigned and logged. The same audit trail that protects the children covers everyone who works on campus.

What schools tell us

The moment it clicks is always the same.

"Dismissal used to be ninety minutes of controlled chaos. Now the gate knows who is picking up every child, and I can show an auditor the record for any afternoon this term."

"I get the notice, I acknowledge it, and the school knows I've seen it. No more scrolling through 400 messages to find the one that matters."
