From exam creation to report card generation, Tiptons Analytics provides a complete academic management solution that supports both Kenya's CBC (rubric-based) and 8-4-4 (percentage-based) curricula. Teachers enter marks online, the system handles grading, and professional report cards are generated automatically.
The Academics Suite centralizes academic operations, supporting all curricula in Kenya. It integrates lesson planning, assessments, library, inventory, communication, transport logistics, digital learning, and more.
By consolidating processes, it enables data-driven decision-making, ensuring efficient workflows, heightened engagement, and continuous improvement for all stakeholders.
Kenya is in a transition period where many schools are running both the CBC and 8-4-4 curricula simultaneously. Some classes follow the CBC framework with rubric-based grading, while upper classes may still follow the 8-4-4 system with percentage marks and KCSE preparation. Tiptons Analytics handles this seamlessly.
When you set up your classes, you simply assign the curriculum type to each class level. The system automatically applies the correct grading scale, report card template, and assessment framework for that curriculum. Teachers entering marks for a CBC class will see rubric descriptors, while those entering for an 8-4-4 class will see percentage fields. Report cards are generated with the appropriate format for each — no manual switching needed.
Tiptons Analytics' exam management module gives schools full flexibility over how assessments are structured. Configure continuous assessment tests (CATs), midterm exams, and end-of-term evaluations with custom weightings. The system supports both the traditional percentage-based marks used in 8-4-4 and the rubric-based assessment descriptors required for CBC classes.
Each class can have its own grading configuration, meaning schools running both CBC and 8-4-4 simultaneously can maintain separate grading standards without any conflict. Exam results feed directly into report card generation, performance analysis, and parent communication — creating a seamless workflow from assessment to reporting.
Generate polished, professional report cards that parents are proud to receive. Tiptons Analytics produces fully branded PDF report cards for both CBC and 8-4-4 curricula, complete with your school logo, motto, colors, and custom fields.
Raw exam scores are only useful when they tell a story. Tiptons Analytics' performance analysis engine transforms marks data into actionable insights that help teachers identify struggling learners, spot subject-level weaknesses, and track improvement over time.
Generate detailed reports by subject, class, stream, or individual student. Compare performance across terms, identify mean score trends, and export analysis reports as PDF or Excel files. For CBC classes, the analysis tracks competency attainment across the 7 core areas. For 8-4-4 classes, it provides traditional mean scores, rankings, and grade distribution.
We know that teachers are busy. That is why Tiptons Analytics' marks entry interface is designed for maximum speed and minimum frustration. Teachers can enter marks from any device — desktop, tablet, or phone — with auto-save, keyboard navigation, and instant validation that catches errors before they are submitted.
