Online texting to parents

Our unique 'intelligent' messaging system allows school managers to set a limit on the frequency and type of messages sent, such that parents are informed regularly. At the same time it ensures parents do not receive too many messages or duplicated messages, by 'intelligently' screening all the messages and only sending those that satisfy the predefined thresholds and criteria.

However, all the details of a text message that a teacher wishes to send are logged, including those that are not actually sent. From this a variety of valuable reports, which support pupil tracking, can be produced for school managers.

Pupils who generally comply with school expectations will experience far more praise from
parents. Poorly behaved pupils will quickly realise their parents can be made fully aware of
all their activities at school.

Send messages to groups such as Year 7, Year 7 English or define your own groups such as 'Hockey team'.

You can type in specific messages or create and use a standard template, say for absence.

Teacher communication

Engaging parents, Maximising support

Teachers do not have the time to communicate with a large number of parents on a regular
basis. Yet parents would provide better support to their child if they were kept informed more often. For various reasons, phone calls to parents can be unnecessarily time consuming
and school reports are relatively infrequent.

Using text messaging, teachers can inform parents far more frequently; allowing parents to praise their child for good progress at school or discuss behavioural improvement.

Each text message is automatically personalised to include the pupils name. As there is no
need to type each message or any part of it, they are sent immediately with immense ease.

Use text messages to praise:

• Good test results
• Good work in class

Reminders

Save paper and admin costs by using text messages to remind parents of:

• Parents evenings or other events
• School closures
• Coursework deadlines
• Special kit requirements

Involvement

Use text messages to help gain parental support for:

• Poor punctuality or absence
• Poor behaviour
• Detentions

Easy to use

Your registration contact system is automatically synchronised with our database overnight, so all contact details are kept up to date.

There are no special skills or equipment required and our web based interface is easy to use from anywhere you have an internet connection.

If you have a website with us, we can add a parental contact details registration page. This will save you the administrative burden of collating mobile phone details by allowing parents to register and update their own details themselves.

Please contact us for a demonstration.

Security

The system is protected by a SSL 128 bit certificate. This is the same protection technology used by your online bank. Staff are CRB checked and the system is fully registered with the Data Protection Registrar.
