Since 2010 Best Grade has been used by schools in Rwanda. Before its introduction secondary schools were under pressure to handle their academic and administrative tasks. Best Grade appeared as a solution to the management obstacles that schools were facing. The free software program has been used to automate tasks such as the creation of report cards, student lists, and other relevant forms that were previously performed by hand.
In July, Moise Ruhinda, a Best Grade Associate, trained 52 schools in the Ngoma district. Many of these schools have just recently gained access to electricity and computers. Others have been using computers for some time but lacked an adequate software program to help manage their school. The full day training was coordinated in conjunction with the local Director of Education, who are representatives of the Ministry of Education. Best Grade provided the software and expertise, and local administrators were in charge of providing a facility and publicizing the event.
Hundreds of schools across Rwanda use Best Grade and have been formally trained or have discovered the program own from our website, www.bestgrade.org. Many schools that we train switch to Best Grade even in the middle of the academic year, because they find the program very useful and easy to use.. Thanks to the product, schools are able to save money and time and improve the quality of their services.
Best Grade is looking to expand its activities in Rwanda and continue trainings at the regional level across the country. We are happy to provide free trainings to interested districts. For more information, please reach us at [email protected]. Or download Best Grade at www.bestgrade.org .
