Cambridge school management system for IGCSE schools in Kenya
Enaton manages Cambridge and IGCSE schools in Kenya: year groups, subject options, the grading structures Cambridge actually uses, and reports in a format parents of international learners expect. It runs alongside CBC in the same school without a second system.
International sections get squeezed into a local template
A Kenyan school running Cambridge alongside CBC usually ends up with two half solutions. The main system handles the local curriculum, and the Cambridge section is run on spreadsheets by whoever understands it, because the system cannot represent year groups, subject options or the grading properly.
That works until the person who maintains the spreadsheets leaves, or until a parent paying international fees asks why their report looks like it was made in a hurry.
How Enaton handles it
Cambridge is set up on its own terms. Year groups rather than Kenyan class labels, subjects chosen per learner rather than fixed per class, and grading structures that match how Cambridge reports rather than being mapped onto a local scale.
Everything else, the fees, the parent portal, attendance, transport and communication, is shared with the rest of the school. The learner is one record with the right academic structure attached, not a separate database.
Structure
- Year groups and the subjects offered in each
- Subject options per learner, because two learners in the same year rarely take the same set
- Department subjects, for schools organised that way
- Subject teachers assigned across year groups
Assessment and grading
- Grading structures configured to match Cambridge reporting rather than a local percentage scale
- Internal assessment through the year, tracked per learner and per subject
- Mocks and internal exams, with the same handling as any other assessment
- Performance tracked across terms and years so a trend is visible
One school, two curricula
The parent of a Cambridge learner and the parent of a CBC learner both open the same portal and both see something that makes sense for their child. The bursar bills both from the same fee structure logic. The director sees one set of numbers for the school, not two that have to be added together carefully.
Who this is for
Heads of the international section stop maintaining a private spreadsheet. Principals get one view of the whole school. Bursars bill both sections the same way. Parents get a report that matches what they expect from a Cambridge school.

Questions we get about this
Can Cambridge and CBC run in the same school?
Yes, and it is one of the more common reasons schools move to us. Each curriculum keeps its own structure, subjects and grading while sharing fees, the parent portal, attendance and everything else.
Does it handle subject options per learner?
Yes. Cambridge learners in the same year group rarely take an identical set, so subjects are assigned per learner rather than fixed to a class.
Can we use our own report format?
Report formats and grading structures are configured per curriculum, so the Cambridge report does not have to look like the CBC one.
Do we need a separate system for A Level?
No. A Level is handled as its own year groups and subject sets within the same school.
