Where do I post news or announcements that parents will see?

Last updated

General › News Management. Give the item a title and a description, and save.

To publish a school announcement for parents to read in their app, use News Management or the dated Notice Board according to the table below. A spoken pickup call at the school gate is a separate dismissal activity and does not deliver news to parents' phones. Parents ko school ki announcement pohanchane ke liye app par news post karein; dated notice ke liye Notice Board kholein. Parents read the saved announcement in the app; publishing school news does not automatically send a notification.

News, notice or message — which one

Three different things, and picking the wrong one is why an announcement does not land:

UseScreenReaches
Standing school newsGeneral › News ManagementEveryone, as a list to browse
A dated noticeGeneral › Notice BoardThe parents app noticeboard
Something for one familyCommunication Center / MessagesThat family only

News is for "the school won a tournament". A notice is for "school closes at 11 on Friday". A message is for "please come and see me about Ali".

Steps

  1. Go to General › News Management
  2. Write a clear title — parents see it in a list, so it has to work on its own
  3. Write the description
  4. Save

If parents cannot see it

  • The Notice Board feature can be restricted for families with fee dues — General › Parent App Privileges
  • Very old parents-app versions may not show newer surfaces; check the app version

Common confusion

"Does posting news send a notification?" Not by itself. Something parents must act on should go out as a notice or a message as well.
