Thiruvananthapuram: An IT firm here has developed a software that provides instant information about students to parents via SMS and e-mail.
IT firm ThoughtRipples has developed the software called Gurusparsh, which will be used by 200 schools in Kerala.
ThoughtRipples' CEO Deepak Cherry George said Gurusparsh enables teachers and school authorities to send information about students' absence, class notifications and marks via SMS and e-mail to parents or guardians on their mobile phones.
"Up to a lakh transactional SMSes can be sent at a time via Gurusparsh. The software also comes in handy for drafting examination results and notifying parents about them," George said in a statement.
