A new digital platform has been launched to strengthen communication between schools and parents while streamlining complex administrative processes.

The mobile app, EduConnect, was launched by co-founders Teddy Leon and Tonia Prescod during a ceremony at the Luther Thorne Primary School yesterday.

Addressing the launch, Ms Prescod, an educator, explained that the app aims to give teachers more time to focus on students while allowing parents to become more engaged in their children’s education.
