Schools/Colleges

Many schools have adopted SMS messaging to improve communications with parents of school children. Gone are the days of problematic notes being delivered by pupils, or administrators spending hours each day on the phone.

With SMS messaging, schools have a more effective and cost-efficient way of communicating with parents. By using a bulk messaging solution, a school is able to send out a message to one, several or all parents in one go.

SMS is a highly cost effective way to keep parents informed – whether it is a notification that bad weather has closed the school, a pupil has an unauthorized absence, a simple reminder about a parent/teacher meeting or a sporting event, the list is endless.

Text messaging not only reduces expenses such as phone bills, photocopying, printing and mailing but also significantly reduces staff workload by freeing up time that would otherwise be wasted using traditional approaches.

Due to its immediacy, SMS is particularly effective for communicating last minute changes including;

• School closure due to adverse weather conditions
• Absence, truancy and detention messages
• Clubs & societies - notice of training sessions, rehearsals, trips, etc.
• Incoming messages from parents & students
• Contacting supply teachers and other temporary staff
• And much, much more.
