School and Training Centre Apps: Keeping Parents Informed and Students Engaged

Paper letters get lost, group chats get noisy and fee reminders are awkward. What a branded parent, student and staff app can do for schools, colleges, tutoring and training centres.

Parents now expect the same convenience from their child’s school or tutoring centre that they get from their bank or food delivery app. Paper letters get lost, group chats become noisy and fee reminders by phone are awkward for everyone. A dedicated, branded app solves this.

Parent app features

  • Daily attendance alerts
  • Homework, class notes and assignments
  • Announcements, event invitations and term dates
  • Fees due, online payment and receipts
  • Exam timetables, grades and reports
  • School bus tracking and pickup alerts
  • Two-way messages with class teachers, within school hours if you prefer

Student app features (tutoring, colleges and training providers)

  • Timetable and course schedules
  • Study materials, videos and recorded classes
  • Online quizzes with instant results
  • Question submission to tutors
  • Progress tracking

Staff app features

  • Take attendance in seconds
  • Post homework and notes
  • Enter marks and comments
  • Send announcements to a class, year group or the whole school

Benefits for institutions

  • Happier parents and a modern image that helps enrolment
  • Faster fee collection with reminders and online payment
  • Less paperwork and fewer phone calls for office staff
  • Better outcomes through regular tests and tracking

Apps used by children need extra care: collect the minimum data, control who can message whom, and follow the rules that apply to you, such as GDPR and the UK Children’s Code, FERPA and COPPA in the US, or local equivalents.
