What a founding school gets.
- The first school year free
No charge for Patoo for your first school year.

We help you bring in your forms, staff, students and parents from a spreadsheet.
- A say in what we build next
Founding schools tell us what matters most, and it shapes what comes next.
How to start.
- Request a demo
We show you report day with an example school, so no real student is on screen.
- Decide with your team
Bring the principal, vice principal and bursar to the demo if you like.
- Bring in your people
Send us a spreadsheet of forms, staff, students and parents. You check it, then import.
- Start from Easter term 2027
Founding schools begin in the Easter term, which starts in January 2027.
What happens after the first year.
Schools pay a yearly amount per student. It is billed to the school and never to parents. Ask us for your school's price. Patoo was built in Jamaica by a school systems administrator, so you can talk to the person who made it.
What Patoo does not do yet.
Patoo does not send SMS or WhatsApp messages yet (email works). It does not take online fee payments, it has no phone app to install, and it does not import past marks. It has no lesson plans or quizzes. If one of these is a must-have for you, tell us.
