Synel Systems for School Registration KESTREL

The Brief

• Kestrel is an AM PM Student Registration Software
  developed by Synel. Students swipe or wave their
  cards at the clock and their attendance is
  registered in Kestrel. Fingerprint option is also
  available for registration.
• Kestrel uses the official codes used for
  attendance by schools. Students are swiping /
  waving their cards at the terminal and their
  attendance is registered automatically. This
  process encourages students to take
  responsibility and register their attendance
  themselves thus saving valuable teaching time
