The school election,
run like it matters.
StemSaam carries your student leadership election from the first classroom vote to the announcement of the head girl and head boy — four rounds, one kiosk, zero spreadsheet chaos. Stem saamis Afrikaans for “vote together”. That's the whole idea.
1 school · 9 elections and counting
Four rounds, one leader board
A process refined over years of real school elections — now with the arithmetic done for you.
- 1
Students vote
Class by class, learners come to the voting kiosk and pick the schoolmates they believe in — up to twenty names, faces on the ballot.
- 2
Teachers vote
Staff cast the same ballot, but their votes carry extra weight. The two rounds combine into one ranked shortlist.
- 3
Know your students
For every shortlisted learner, teachers answer two honest questions: do I know this child, and are they a leader? A fairness formula keeps unknowns from being punished.
- 4
Head girl & head boy
From the final candidates who meet the criteria, teachers choose two girls and two boys. The results decide the school's next leaders.
Everything the officials need
Kiosk voting
One shared screen or tablet per venue. Big touch targets, student photos, and hard limits so a ballot can never be overfilled.
Live results
Tallies, turnout per class and combined weighted scores update the moment a ballot is cast — no counting evening required.
Full audit trail
Every ballot is kept and inspectable. Officials can invalidate a spoiled ballot — or restore it — with one click.
Import in minutes
Upload the class lists straight from Excel — one sheet per class — and copy last year's teachers over in one click.
Years of history
Every election stays browsable, year after year, in one place. Compare, revisit, and archive test runs out of the way.
Your school's colours
Logo, name and the entire colour scheme are configurable — each school's kiosk looks like its own.
