Parent Communications
Involve your parents in school life using SchoolsBuddy’s built-in parent communications via email and our mobile apps, with personal calendar for each user.
Automate your school communications with email, push notifications and global SMS.
SchoolsBuddy includes built in parent communications via email and mobile push notifications. SMS messaging is also available where required. Send alerts, confirmation and other messages to parents quickly and simply. Each user will also have a personal calendar within their SchoolsBuddy login to easily see the events relevant to them or their children.
Key features
Send messages to the whole school or individual groups, years or classes.
Send immediate alerts to parents for school closure or urgent information.
Push notifications cost nothing to send, saving money on expensive SMS messaging.
Messages can be sent by staff members using a mobile device when off-site.
Any message sent will automatically be sent as an email and push notification (if enabled), and will also be stored in the message centre.
Each user’s diary will only show events relevant to them or their children.

Mobile Apps
Our mobile apps are available on the App Store and Play Store. Our apps allow full use of the SchoolsBuddy platform allowing parents to sign up to activities, book events, give online consent for trips and make online payments. Staff users can also access emergency and medical information for students via their mobile device, send communications and take attendance registers.
Personalised Calendars
A key feature of SchoolsBuddy is a personalised diary for each user (staff member, parent or student) which shows events and activities relevant to them. Staff will also see parent teacher conference appointments (parents evenings) and parents will see events for all the children they have at the school.

SchoolsBuddy reduces the number of systems we need to manage our events and communications. This saves us time, money and enables us do so much more, we are thrilled!
