Stage 3: Maintaining School Gateway
Making School Gateway a Habit
Parents get the most out of School Gateway when they check it daily so building those habits are important. Here are some tips for keeping parents engaged on a day-to-day basis.
Using Schoolcomms Efficiently
The more efficiently your staff are using Schoolcomms the better your parents’ School Gateway experience will be. See the support section of our site and join us on free Online Tutorials to make sure you’re getting the most out of your features.
App Uptake Progress
It is important not to become complacent and to continue to check-up on School Gateway uptake throughout the year. Luckily, Schoolcomms has inbuilt functionality to do that (scroll down until you reach Parents Registered for School Gateway).
Say Thank You
Use the savings calculator in the Launch stage to work out an estimate of how much money the school has saved due to parents using the School Gateway app and let parents know. They’ll want to know that what they’re doing is supporting their school.
