Messaging & notifications

Stay in touch and on top of what's due. Message staff and parents inside the academy, post announcements, and let the notification bell remind you of tasks and events — clicking a reminder takes you straight there.

The bell shows what's due, with an unread count.

How it works

Messages & announcements

Hold conversations scoped to the team, and broadcast announcements parents see in the portal. Everything is private to your academy.

The notification bell

Reminders are generated for tasks due soon (or overdue) and events starting soon. The bell shows an unread count; read items stay in the list (de-emphasised) rather than vanishing, and clicking an event reminder opens that exact event.

  2. 2Post an announcement parents see in the portal.
  3. 3Click the bell to see reminders.
