The admin shouldn't be harder than the teaching.

Learner Records

Attendance Management

Digital attendance registers per class, per day. Mark absent/present in seconds. Generate attendance reports for DSD inspections instantly.

Fee Management & Billing

Monthly billing, receipts, and payment tracking. Send fee statements to parents. Track arrears. Accept EFT or cash, all recorded in the system.

DSD Compliance Reporting

Generate DSD-required reports, learner lists, and statistical returns directly from your data. Stop compiling reports by hand.

Parent Communication

Send bulk SMS or email updates to parents by class or individually. Newsletters, absence alerts, fee reminders, all from one place.

Educator Management

Educator profiles, qualification records, leave management, and classroom assignments. Keep your staff records inspection-ready at all times.

Classroom & Age Groups

Organise learners into classes by age group. Manage room capacity, assign educators, and track annual age progression automatically.

Document Storage

Upload and manage all centre documents: registration certificates, DSD approvals, health certificates, and learner portfolios, in one secure place.

Centre Dashboard

See enrolment numbers, today's attendance, outstanding fees, and upcoming renewals at a glance. Know the state of your centre without digging through files.

DSD & SACE Compliant by Design

Jaspa ECD is built around South Africa's Department of Social Development (DSD) requirements and the South African Council for Educators (SACE) regulatory framework. Every report, every record format, and every statutory requirement is baked into the system, not a last-minute checkbox. Your centre stays inspection-ready, always.

Priced for ECD centres, not corporates.

Jaspa ECD is priced per centre, not per learner, not per educator. One flat fee that covers your whole operation.
