Stage 2 of the School Gateway Success Guide
We’ve built Schoolcomms to make it as easy as possible for schools to get their parents on board. Here we’ll talk you through using the tools that are already available to you to chase those parents that have slipped through the net.
The Schoolcomms Dashboard lets you see how many students have a contactable prime parent and all the ways you can contact them. See how close you are to your 100% School Gateway uptake target and find out which parents are yet to be involved.
Send School Gateway invites directly from the Schoolcomms Dashboard. Schoolcomms automatically identifies parents that haven’t yet signed up, making chasing parents and encouraging them to sign up as easy as possible. It only takes a few clicks.
School Gateway should be mentioned wherever possible as it’s an integral part of how your school runs and engages your parents so make sure you talk about it often.
Social media is great for reaching all of your parents but it has two major flaws – it’s too generic and too public. That’s why we suggest using it to remind your parents that they can access all the information they need via School Gateway.
School Gateway should be a constant presence, at Parents Evenings and events, in email footers, during reports season. You’ve already got the tools in your kit, here are some suggestions on how to reuse them.
