What is mySchoolApp?

Keeping in touch with parents and carers is vital for schools – whether it’s reminding them about children bringing wellies in for wet weather or a change to the parents' evening. It helps the school run smoothly and improves both family and pupil engagement. But with more demands on your time and money, you need a simple, effective solution that won’t cost the earth. Say goodbye to relying on scrunched up letters in school bags and say hello to mySchoolApp – use it to keep the 'mobile generation' of parents updated on school news, events, payment requests and last-minute changes such as snow days and event cancellations. One tap or click will get through to all the parents you want.
