Parental Engagement Quick Guides
We are here to make sure your parents get the best experience possible and keep them engaged. I have put together a few of our top recommendations for you to get the most out of the system, so you can have the best engagement with your parents in a few easy steps.
✅ Check how much of your school you are reaching with the Engagement Report
In the Engagement Report you can view a few different stats on how engaged your parents are in the app. From what percentage of your children have parents logging in (Reach), the percentage of messages being read on the app (Interact) and even comparing the Reach by year groups, you can find it all on the Engagement Report. Take a quick look at our report below.

Save yourself time having to chase parents to read important messages by letting our system for you! Adding Autochase to a message will chase any parents who haven’t responded every day for up to two weeks as standard, giving you back your time to do what you do best.

✅ Ensure parents never miss an event by scheduling reminders in Notices
Add reminders for your upcoming events in Notices to make sure parents are reminded closer to the event. Scheduling incremental reminders ahead of time for your events in Notices means you can sit back and let the app remind parents for you.
