We’ve updated PS Connect to help schools navigate the ‘next normal’

We’re passionate about helping schools to reach out to their communities. That’s why we’re constantly updating PS Connect with the features that matter most to our customers.

Throughout the ongoing Covid-19 crisis, we’ve closely monitored our customer schools and developed the features they need to continue to succeed, including:

• Increasing message character limit to help schools communicate an ever-changing situation
• The ability to copy staff into parent/carer messages
• Sending messages to multiple timetabled classes at once

Our Product Director Tim Cropper recently hosted a short webinar explaining these changes and how they will help schools to continue to communicate throughout the next normal; you can watch it below to find out the latest PS Connect features.

If you’re interested in seeing how PS Connect works first-hand, don’t hesitate to book a free demonstration. We’d be more than happy to walk you through the system.
