Do your parents know what’s happening at school? 

Announcing important dates, setting homework and sending messages home has traditionally been a problem for schools.

Many parents are unable to come to school leaving little time for face to face communication with staff. Newsletters are often found scrunched up in the bottom of book bags, weeks or maybe even months out of date. Then, when it comes to winter time, parents are forced to rely on local radio or council sites to find out information about school openings and closures.

Opening the lines of communication

Our Parent Messenger service is designed to change this by improving the way in which schools communicate. 

The fast, flexible, system lets users send school SMS texts or emails to all parents or specific groups. Messages are sent and delivery reports received through an online interface. Using the service users can receive updates on everything from term dates to deadlines.
