LEPA

School management for Sierra Leone: admissions, attendance, grading, fees, staff, and parent communication — feeding a national education data layer.

Overview

LEPA is digital infrastructure for modern education. Schools run daily operations on one platform; that operational data powers district and national insight. The public marketing site describes student information, admissions, attendance, gradebooks, finance, staff, reporting, and a companion teachers app.

Problem

Schools, districts, and ministries often run on disconnected tools, so operational work at the school does not become usable national data.

What I built

One ecosystem: school-level operations (LEPA) write into a shared national data layer that NED and other intelligence views can read. Data is entered once and reused for dashboards, mapping, and reporting.

My contribution

  • Building the school management platform with Nexlura, used by connected schools in Sierra Leone.
