Why is School Stream so effective?
The smartphone revolution has truly changed the way we interact with each other, as well as with services. School Stream allows schools to communicate with parents in a way that aligns with their habits and expectations. In other words, we make it easy for parents so you get a better response.
As a fully integrated school communication app, School Stream can deliver notifications directly to smartphones.
Managing school life easily on parents’ smartphones means schools can expect a higher response rate – which is particularly helpful for reporting explained absences.
Parents no longer have to scour busy inboxes to find important messages from school because they can all be found in one place. Forms, payments, notifications, absent notes, parent-teacher evening bookings, translations to reach NESB communities, and so much more, can all be delivered directly to your parent community on their phones, no matter where they are.
From a school perspective
Instead of text messages – which can be expensive and soon add up – parents can receive an alert from school directly to their phone. There is no limit to the number of characters and notifications sent directly to parents’ phones reduces the need for printing newsletters and forms.
‘School Stream allows us to communicate directly with parents in seconds and this immediate communication is essential in today’s world’.
Paul Taylor, Principal, Turramurra North Public School‘The School Stream app provides a much-needed communication tool; which enabled our families to access information 24/7 at the press of a button. All data; events, calendar dates, alerts, whole school information, programs, workshops etc, all accessed from one point with only one manager required to input data’.
