The problem

Every school day,
parents wait and worry.

Schools work hard to earn parent trust. But most have no way to prove their children are safe — until a parent calls to ask.

📞
"Did my child arrive?"

Parents call the school to check. The school checks the class. The teacher checks the register. By then, 10 minutes have passed and a parent is late for work.

🚗
The wrong person at the gate

An unregistered person arrives to pick up a child. The guard has no way to verify them — no photo, no system, just a name on a piece of paper.

📋
Paper registers fail

Registers get lost, forgotten or filled incorrectly. There is no audit trail. When something goes wrong, nobody can say exactly when a child left — or with whom.

🏆
Safety is a competitive edge

The school that can tell parents "we will notify you the moment your child arrives" has an advantage no competitor can easily copy.

How it works

Simple for schools.
Reassuring for parents.

SafeGate works with a smart ID card and a reader at the school gate. Everything else happens automatically.

1
🪪
Smart ID card issued

Every child gets a school-branded smart ID card with an embedded RFID chip — carrying the school name, child's photo and class.

2
🚪
Child taps at the gate

The security guard has a SafeGate reader at the school gate. The child taps their card on arrival and on departure — takes less than a second.

3
📱
Parent notified instantly

The moment the card is tapped, the parent receives a notification. No app to download. The alert goes straight to their phone.

4
🛡️
Safe pick-up verified

When a guardian arrives to pick up a child, their face is checked against their registered photo before the child is released. Every pick-up is logged with a timestamp.

Features

Everything a school needs
to run a safe gate.

The hardware, the software and the parent communication — in one system.

📊
Live principal dashboard

The principal sees who is in school, who is absent and who arrived late — in real time, from any device with a browser.

📱
Instant parent alerts

Parents receive a notification the moment their child arrives, leaves or is picked up. No app needed — alerts go directly to their phone.

🛡️
Safe pick-up verification

Every authorised guardian is registered with a photo. The guard verifies their face before releasing any child. Every pick-up is timestamped and logged.

🔐
Staff clock-in tracking

Teachers and staff use the same system to clock in and out. The principal sees staff and student attendance on one screen.

⚠️
Absence alerts at 8:30 AM

If a child has not tapped in by 8:30 AM, the system automatically notifies the parent. Early awareness, every school day.

📋
Term attendance reports

Generate attendance reports per student, per class or for the whole school — for any day or the full term.
