Arbor Education wants to give schools their time back
The school register was only the beginning. Arbor is bringing attendance, staffing, finance and timetabling together - and asking schools to rethink the work between the lessons.
Henry Chibuzo Is Turning the School Fee Spreadsheet Into Infrastructure
Schoolable began with a stubborn, unglamorous problem: money moving through schools without enough visibility. Henry Chibuzo Nnalue has spent years turning that administrative tangle into financial infrastructure for schools, parents and, now, children learning to manage money.
Schoolable
Schoolable is a Lagos-based fintech (Y Combinator W'19) building financial infrastructure for African education. Through a web platform for schools and a mobile app for parents, it helps private K-12 schools collect fees on time, reconcile payments, run payroll and manage expenses, while letting families plan, save, borrow and pay school fees in installments. Founded by Henry Chibuzo and Angela Essien, it operates on the premise that access to affordable finance is the biggest barrier to quality education in Africa.
