Rast Education connects families with their children's school in one place. Accounts are created by the school - there is no public sign-up. A family signs in with a family code issued by the school. FOR PARENTS AND STUDENTS • Day-by-day attendance, and requesting an absence in advance • Grades and report cards, once the school has released them • Homework, class timetable and exam schedule • Fees, invoices and payment history • Follow the school bus on a map while it is on its route • Message teachers and the office directly, with voice notes and attachments • The class feed: posts, photos and activity albums • Circulars, school news and the school calendar • Booking parent-teacher meeting slots • Meal menu and the school library • Nurse visits recorded by the school nurse • Instant notifications about your own children FOR TEACHERS AND STAFF • Take the daily register - it works with no signal and sends automatically once you are back online • Enter grades and homework, and share lesson plans and teaching resources • Message parents and run the class feed • Staff clock-in and leave requests • Tools for heads of department and management LANGUAGES Arabic • English • Kurdish, with full right-to-left support. PRIVACY No adverts, no selling of data, no marketing use. Student data belongs to the school and is managed through it. Location is collected from staff devices only, for two things: recording a staff member's clock-in at school, and sharing the bus position while a driver is running a route so families can follow the bus. Only the bus route uses location in the background, and the driver sees a clear disclosure before any permission is requested. Parents' and students' locations are never collected. A guardian can ask, inside the app, for their account to be closed: Profile > Request to leave. The school reviews the request, and on approval the sign-in account is closed. The pupil's school record stays with the school, as its own rules require.
