Benefits for Schools
School communication shouldn't create more work.
Between newsletters, term dates, lunch menus, events, reminders and last-minute updates, schools have a constant stream of information to share with families. Keeping everything up to date across a website, emails and other platforms can quickly become another job for an already busy office team.
SchoolDayHub brings the everyday information parents need into one simple, easy-to-manage app.
Built for schools and pre-schools, it gives you a dedicated communication hub that works alongside your existing website and systems. Parents get quick access to useful information from their phone, while your team has a straightforward way to keep it current.
And it's free for schools to use.
Spend less time updating your school website
Your main school website still has an important role. It's where prospective families can learn about your school and where you can publish statutory information, policies and other permanent content.
But does your team really need to edit the website every time the lunch menu changes or there's a reminder about Friday's event?
SchoolDayHub gives frequently changing information somewhere more practical to live. Your team can update the content parents check regularly without having to navigate your full website CMS.
That means fewer routine website edits and a quicker route from the school office to parents.
Give parents one place to check
Parents are busy too. Important information can easily become scattered between emails, newsletters, website pages, calendars and messages.
SchoolDayHub puts the essentials together in one place, including:
- School lunch menus
- Term dates and calendars
- Upcoming events
- School newsletters
- Notices and announcements
- Reminders
- Push notifications
- Local weather information
- Traffic information
- Useful links to your main school website
Instead of wondering where something was sent or searching through old emails, parents can open the app and check.
Make everyday school communication easier
Some updates need to reach families quickly.
A reminder about a non-uniform day shouldn't require a lengthy website update. Neither should a change to an event, a new newsletter or a message about something happening tomorrow.
SchoolDayHub lets authorised school administrators manage these everyday updates from a central platform. Push notifications can bring important information directly to parents' attention, while reminders help keep upcoming dates from slipping through the cracks.
The result is a communication channel designed around the pace of an actual school week.
Your school's own branded space
SchoolDayHub doesn't have to feel like another generic platform.
Schools can customise their presence with their own branding, helping the app feel familiar to parents and consistent with existing school communications.
You gain a dedicated digital space for your school without the time, expense or technical work involved in developing and maintaining your own standalone app.
Work alongside the systems you already use
SchoolDayHub isn't intended to replace every platform your school already has.
Your website can remain your main public-facing presence. Existing platforms used for learning journeys, classroom engagement or other specialist purposes can continue doing what they do best.
SchoolDayHub fills a different role: making the practical information parents need from day to day easier to find.
Rather than forcing schools into a complete change of systems, it can become the convenient front door to the information families use most often.
Reduce avoidable questions for the school office
"What time does it start?"
"What's on the lunch menu today?"
"When does term finish?"
"Where can I find the latest newsletter?"
They're perfectly reasonable questions, but answering the same queries repeatedly takes time.
When information is easy to find, parents have a better chance of finding the answer themselves. SchoolDayHub gives families a clear place to look before they need to call or email the office.
For administrators, that can mean fewer routine enquiries competing for attention during a busy school day.
Keep useful information current
Some of the information parents need isn't produced by the school at all.
SchoolDayHub can provide useful details such as local weather and traffic conditions alongside school information. Families can check what the day looks like without jumping between several different apps.
It's a small convenience, but one that makes SchoolDayHub useful beyond simply reading school announcements.
Simple for schools. Useful for parents. Free to use.
SchoolDayHub has been created to solve a straightforward problem: school information shouldn't be difficult to publish, and it shouldn't be difficult for parents to find.
