This project will act as an oversight and programme-design wrapper for a school digital operations improvement initiative inspired by NOAB Solutions' service to Nigerian secondary schools.
The project will not position PHC as supervising NOAB as an organisation. Instead, PHC's role will be to frame, coordinate, and assure a larger education-improvement programme in which school-management technology is one delivery mechanism. The programme will examine how participating schools can move from paper-based administration to a more transparent digital operating model covering attendance, academic results, school fees, parent communication, branded document generation, and leadership reporting. Early work will confirm the school cohort, establish decision-making and reporting arrangements, define data protection and consent expectations, agree baseline measures, and map which functions should be treated as core programme benefits.
NOAB's website indicates that the platform is designed for Nigerian realities: offline attendance capture, parent PIN access, SMS alerts, support for cash, transfer and card payments, WAEC/NECO grading, and setup through bulk Excel import. These features give the programme a practical starting point, while PHC's oversight should test adoption quality, process change, data quality, parent experience, and whether school leaders can use the information to make better decisions. Individual implementation activities can then be opened as smaller projects beneath this programme, allowing the main project to remain focused on governance, assurance, benefits, and strategic alignment.
