Students stay silent
Stigma keeps struggles hidden. A simple, private check-in gives every student a way to ask for help.

The Product
Four modules. One complete system.
01
Check-In Engine
A daily 90-second student mood check-in that works on any browser. Names aren't stored with responses, and class-level patterns surface early, with a self-referral button for students who want help.
02
Counsellor Dashboard
A class-level wellbeing view with flagged attention areas, an anonymous session-booking queue, and session notes with outcome tracking, turning one overstretched counsellor into a proactive system.
03
Compliance Reporting
Auto-generated reports that give schools the documentation and audit trail they need to demonstrate compliance, without manual record-keeping.
04
Staff Training & Parents
Track mandatory staff training and certificates, and keep parents engaged through simple, timely nudges, closing the loop around every student.
Why It Matters
Behind every dashboard, a student

✓ManoSetu brings school distribution, operations, and compliance infrastructure
✓Schools get one complete, accountable, child-safe system
