The Principal Director of School Education (DoSE) has notified that the SMILE App will be implemented across Nagaland in all Government schools and establishments under DoSE from 1st of February 2025. In this regard, all teachers and staff are informed to mark their attendance daily using the SMILE App kiosk at their respective schools and establishments. To facilitate smooth functioning, the Data/HR Cell at DoSE, Kohima, will monitor attendance data and manage contingent issues.

The SMILE App is being implemented under the Nagaland Education Project–The Lighthouse (NECTAR) with an objective to improve system and school management. The app uses advanced technology such as facial recognition, timestamping, and geofencing for marking attendance, leave application, and tracking its status.

This initiative aims to promote efficient administrative practices, improve data-driven decision-making, and foster a culture of accountability and transparency in the education system.  In this regard, the department appealed to all stakeholders for their kind cooperation.
