School management, built around the way schools work.

What Thorlus does

Thorlus is a school management system built to help schools in Uganda bring everyday school administration into one organised platform. It connects the work of school administrators, teachers and other authorised staff so they can manage information and routines without relying on disconnected spreadsheets, notebooks and messages.

Thorlus is designed for schools of different sizes, from smaller schools getting started with digital administration to established nursery, primary and secondary schools that need a shared system.

Why we built Thorlus

School teams spend valuable time moving information between registers, spreadsheets, payment records and academic records. Thorlus brings these workflows together so staff can spend more time running the school and supporting learners.

Our approach is practical: make common school tasks easier to organise, keep information accessible to authorised users, and build features around the realities of Ugandan schools.

What schools can do

Depending on the features enabled for a school, Thorlus can support workflows such as:

• Managing student records and school information.
• Recording and reviewing attendance.
• Managing school fees and recording payments.
• Managing assessments and producing academic reports.
• Sharing school messages and notifications with authorised users.
• Managing school settings, staff access and other administrative workflows.

Built for Ugandan schools

Thorlus is being developed with Ugandan school operations in mind, including the terminology, administrative workflows and school structures commonly used by nursery, primary and secondary schools.

We aim to keep the product approachable for school teams that are moving from paper-based processes or a collection of separate tools to a single school management system.

Our approach

We believe school software should feel useful rather than complicated. We focus on clear workflows, sensible defaults, responsive interfaces and features that solve real administrative problems.

We also recognise that a school is responsible for the information it enters into its account. That is why access controls, secure account practices and responsible handling of school data are important parts of the Thorlus product.
