Kinderpedia integrates tailored functionalities for the planning and monitoring of school operations, class management, progress monitoring, parent communication, and automatizes the invoicing of tuition fees.
Using Kinderpedia will bring the Maple Bear network in 32 countries around the world an integrated digital framework, which includes user management, communication, class management, financial and operational functionalities.
The app is already being used for more than two years by two dynamic and innovative Maple Bear communities – Maple Bear CEE and Maple Bear UAE. The global roll-out of the solution is scheduled to occur over the next 18 months.
New Maple Bear schools will open with Kinderpedia and the existing schools are invited to transition to the platform based on an implementation calendar, with assisted onboarding, user migration, personalized training and access to a diversified range of tutorials and usage guides.
“Innovative technology solutions is a key component of Maple Bear’s value offering, and partnering with Kinderpedia allows us to provide our teaching staff with intuitive tools to simplify their administrative tasks and make their work much more effective. The mobile app also allows us to open a channel of communication with our families, who play a critical role in collaborating with us in their children’s education journey. For our school owners and partners across the world, Kinderpedia provides an end-to-end school management tool, to ease administration and financial tasks in their regional networks, enhance transparency and dialogue and promote best practices,” stated Arno Krug, CEO of Maple Bear Global Schools.
A total of 2,000 schools and kindergartens from 14 countries on four continents are currently registered on Kinderpedia, totaling more than 200,000 student accounts.
Last year, Kinderpedia raised EUR1.8 million in funding from investment fund Early Game Ventures (EGV). Existing investors, RocaX, Growceanu, and business angels also participated in the round.
There are currently more than 44,000 students enrolled in 550+ Maple Bear early childhood, elementary, middle, and high schools in 32 countries.
