How It Works

How SENTINEL Works


The SENTINAL application suit consist out of an Administrative Web App and an easy-to-use Mobile App.


The Admin App is used by administrators to setup information for the school, such as users, events and learners on a desktop.


The Mobile App is installed on the mobile phones or tablets of the school staff by means of a downloadable installation pack. Each user will have his own username and password. The Mobile App is used by school staff to validate QR codes presented by learners and visitors, to validate entry. The Mobile App is also used by school staff to perform the daily register taking of learners, to manage transport of learners to events and to obtain emergency information about learners when required.

Daily Register Taking


Daily register taking at school is a crucial routine that serves multiple purposes. It not only records attendance but also ensures the safety and accountability of students. This process involves teachers checking off each student's name to track their presence and absence, helping schools maintain accurate records for attendance-related matters. This seemingly routine task plays a fundamental role in the efficient functioning of a school and the well-being of its students.


Register taking is mostly a manual, paper-based and tedious process at most schools. The SENTINEL app aims to digitize this process to reduce the admin load on staff and facilitate communication between the school and parents.


Access Control


A unique QR Code are generated for each learner. The QR Codes are shared with learners via SMS, emails or printed letters. 


When the learner arrives at the premises, he display his QR Code (printed or digital) to the supervisor at the gate. The supervisor uses a standard smart phone to scan the QR code. 


Access are either granted or denied.


The supervisor uses the app to see who has checked in and who are not present yet. The supervisor can also obtain access to emergency information about learners if needed.
