Rules for using School Prime. Includes Parents Pay model, acceptable use, data ownership, and liability. Please read carefully.

  • Last Updated: May 13, 2026 • Effective: May 13, 2026 • Version 2.1

1. Acceptance & Definitions

School Prime is a SaaS platform operated by Ingenuity Digital Technology (“We”). By accessing website, requesting demo, or subscribing, you (School, Owner, Admin, Teacher, Parent, Student – “You”) agree to these Terms. If you are accepting on behalf of a school, you warrant you have authority. If you do not agree, do not use service.
Definitions: “Tech Fee” = per-student per-term fee paid by parents (₦1,000-₦2,000). “Subscription” = school’s access to School Prime. “School Data” = all data uploaded by school.

2. Our Services

We provide cloud-based school management: admissions, timetables, attendance, fee collection, gradebooks, report cards, homework, SMS/email alerts, live virtual classes, transport, hostel, library, analytics, and role-based dashboards (Super Admin, Teacher, Student, Parent, Accountant, Librarian).
Service is provided on 99.9% uptime target, but not guaranteed. We may update features with notice.

Demo accounts are for evaluation only, data may be reset.

3. Account Registration & Responsibilities

  • You must provide accurate school information, CAC (if requested), and admin contact.
  • You are responsible for maintaining confidentiality of admin passwords and for all activities under your account.
  • You must ensure you have parental consent for student data per NDPR and maintain own privacy policy for parents.
  • One account per school. Multi-branch schools use Enterprise plan with centralized super-admin.
  • You must not share Super Admin credentials with unauthorized persons.

4. Fees, Parents Pay Model & Payments

Our Unique Model: School Pays ₦0. Unlike traditional software charging ₦500k setup + yearly renewal, School Prime charges Tech Fee directly to parents per student per term.

  • Standard: ₦600/student/term, Professional: ₦850/student/term (Most Popular), Enterprise: Custom for 3+ branches.
  • Tech Fee added to student bill as ‘Technology Fee’ and collected via Paystack/Flutterwave/Stripe integrated in parent portal.
  • School keeps 100% of its own tuition and other fees. Tech Fee is separate and remitted to Us, then affiliate commission deducted if applicable.
  • Parents receive instant digital receipt.
  • If parents fail to pay Tech Fee, access may be restricted per school’s policy, but school still has access to admin data.
  • Prices may be reviewed annually with 30-day notice. Existing schools retain old price for 1 session after increase.
  • All fees in NGN, inclusive of VAT where applicable. Payment gateway fees included in Tech Fee.
Example: 300 students × ₦850 = ₦255,000 total Tech Fee per term collected from parents, not from school account. School account balance remains unaffected.

5. Acceptable Use & Prohibited Activities

You agree NOT to:

  • Upload unlawful, defamatory, or infringing content.

  • Create fake student accounts to avoid Tech Fees.
  • Use service for any school that is not your own without written permission.
