For South African schools

The timeline that follows your child.

One persistent record per student — every post, report and milestone — that travels with a child across class changes, year promotions and even a move to a new school. Built for pre-schools today, the whole school tomorrow.

What Klaslink is

School communication and pre-school management app for South Africa.

Klaslink connects schools, teachers and parents in one app — class announcements and newsletters, direct messages, daily pre-school reports, attendance and pickup, report cards and invoicing — all built around a persistent per-student timeline that follows each child from pre-school through primary school. Multi-tenant, per-school branded and POPIA-compliant.

The keystone differentiator

A record that doesn't reset every January.

Most school apps tie a child's history to a single class or school year. When the class changes — or the child moves on — the story starts over. Klaslink's timeline is the child's, not the class's. It follows them, intact, the whole way through.

Enrol

A persistent student identity is created — once.

Daily moments

Posts, photos, reports and milestones land on the timeline.

Promote

New class, new teacher — same continuous record.

Transfer

Move schools and the history travels with the child.

Look back

Parents scroll years of growth in one unbroken thread.

What's inside

Everything a class day needs — calmly connected.

One platform for admins, teachers and parents. Multi-tenant, per-school branded, and built to scale from pre-school to high school.

Unified school comms

Teachers post once; it fans out to the parent feed and mirrors onto each child's timeline — with FCM push so nothing is missed.

Parent home & child switcher

Welcome, term progress, recent activity and quick actions — with a one-tap switcher for parents of more than one child.

Pre-School daily ops

Attendance, pickup & allergy tracking, sick bay, daily reports and a media pipeline with signed URLs.

Direct messages

Parent–teacher DMs with deterministic threads, read receipts, typing indicators and push — kept on the record.

POPIA-compliant by design

Consent gating, self-service family data export and full audit trails — privacy that holds up to South African law.

Per-school branding

Each school is its own tenant — logo, seed colour, name and address on every screen and invoice. One codebase, many schools.

Everything in the box

One platform, the whole school day.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions.

Who is Klaslink for?

Pre-schools and primary schools in South Africa, and the teachers and parents connected to them. It's built to scale with a school from pre-school to high school.

What makes Klaslink different from other school apps?

The timeline belongs to the child, not the class. Posts, reports and milestones stay on one continuous record through class changes, year promotions and even a move to a new school — nothing resets in January.

Is Klaslink POPIA compliant?

Yes. Parents give consent before any data is shown, every record carries an audit trail, each school is its own isolated tenant, and families can export their own data at any time.

How do parents sign in?

With an invite from the school and their phone number — a one-time code, no passwords to remember. Returning parents sign straight back in.

Can parents control notifications?

Yes — quiet hours, daily or weekly digests, and muting individual classes. Safety-critical alerts like pickup and sick-bay notices still come through.

How is Klaslink priced?

Per school, scaled to phase and enrolment, with each school branded as its own tenant. Tell us your phase and rough enrolment and we'll quote.
