Parent Hub

Mark Robinson, School Business Manager: Not only is the programme slick but the interaction with the provider is always a positive experience in terms of speed and supportiveness.
Emily Walker, Office Manager: We love our new App. The only thing we would like to request is the option to manually add contacts. We have some students who are in care and do not have anyone in our MIS system with PR but this means they do not pull through into ParentHub.
Sally Bailey, Business Manager: I personally love the Parent Hub app, it makes communicating with our parents so easy - I must use it at least 10 times a day, if not more! It took a while to get all our parents on board, but after the initial set up, it has been so easy to use. If there is ever a problem, a quick phone call to Mike and everything is resolved straight away! New features are being added all the time which makes my life easier eg templates and the edit and resend function for messages.
