Karri enables instant Covid-19 screening for schools
Karri mobile payment app has added a new feature to help schools prevent the spread of Covid-19. The app is already being used by more than 1000 schools across the country and is the simplest way to screen children and staff in the comfort of their homes before they arrive on the school premises.
Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga has announced that schools will begin their gradual phased approach back as of 1 June 2020. The minister has said independent or private schools would also be opening in the metropolitan areas, adding the revised school calendar would be gazetted soon.
Karri is a mobile payment app that is fast, secure and powered by Nedbank. It allows parents to make safe, quick and convenient payments to their school. The app has helped move millions in cash through secure, trackable online transfers.
The new attendance feature is free and enables parents to screen their children daily before school. It is an easy process that’s part of the attendance register, daily screening tests are collected and the results can tracked in one place, all whilst following the correct protocols.
Karri CEO Doug Hoernle says they understand the complexity that comes with enforcing strict new rules and protocols around screening staff and students for symptoms of the Coronavirus. “That’s why we released a new feature, for free, to assist with the daily screening of staff and children alike.”
School management teams and teachers will receive full training about new health and safety standards. Regular hand sanitisation and face masks will most likely be compulsory and children will be asked to adhere to strict social distancing rules.
