ABSTRACT

One of the many challenges facing schools today is accurate identification and clearance of persons who brings a pupil to school in the morning and/or takes a pupil from school after closing hours. Nowadays there are several threats to pupils in the schools, so there is serious need to adopt a user-friendly, reliable, secured and fast response system. This project work proposed a web-based school pupils’ identification and attendance system using QR code. The UML use case diagram was used to design functional and non-functional requirements of the system and the UML sequence diagram was used to design the sequence of interactions among all entities of the system. The front-end was implemented with HTML5 and CSS while the back-end (i.e., database) was implemented with MySQL and PHP was used to linked the two ends together. The system was tested/validated severally using arbitrary information, which shows that it was user-friendly, reliable, has fast response time and secured.
