Education is an area where digital transformation has often lagged behind, despite the fact that students are digital natives, among the most skilled technology users today. While students have embraced technology, many school admin operations continue to be carried out using traditional methods.
Driven by personal experience as parents and the challenges faced in a fast-moving world, the egoneis.com portal was developed for an elementary school in Cyprus in 2022.
Designed with the convenience of parents in mind, Egoneis.com provides a dedicated platform for the school’s Parent Association to communicate, engage and transact with members. The website offers a range of features, including sections for announcements, downloading important documents, an e-shop (for membership subscriptions, school uniforms delivered directly to classrooms, event tickets, and payments for activities, photoshoots, or donations), as well as feeds from the Parent Association’s social media. Additionally, a contact form is available for inquiries and interaction.
Following overwhelming success, where up to 90% of parents transacted online, and after numerous requests from other schools, the website is evolving into a platform that can host multiple schools. Now offered as a SaaS model to Parent Associations of schools across any grade level and location (Kindergarten, elementary, gymnasium/lyceum, public or private), the platform will continue to add new features to enhance both the convenience for parents, the efficiency of non-profit organizations relying on volunteers, and the ability to grow the association’s income—funds that are used to support students in need and organize activities focused on student welfare, cultural development, and entertainment.
