Cost, ease of use for both parents and staff, aesthetics of site ie. social media look

Helen found Parent Hub:

    Cheaper than using another comms provider, parent engagement is higher so fundraising events generate more income.
  • Moderately improves school processes
    Communication processes with parents are more efficient, decreasing admin staff task times i.e. targeting specific parents using direct messages or receipted messages function. Channels are viewed like a social media news feed that parents can scroll back through or search.

Used Parent Hub for 5 years+

Parent Hub has been, and continues to be, such a great tool for directly, group or whole school messaging. It helps track what is sent and who is reading (or not). We use it everyday, all day! Seamlessly syncronising with our MIS to have access to every contact available, we have atleast 93% engagement on the app and all the rest we can still reach via email or sms. Couldn't recommend it more, especially with over 600 contacts to keep in touch with!

Virginie Sanchez

Office Administrator

Used Parent Hub for 1-2 years

Feb 2021

ParentHub is a very simple platform to use but an amazingly powerful tool. ParentHub can pride themselves on an extremely reliable system and an impressively reactive support team. I can't speak highly enough of their ability to listen and take suggestions onboard. ParentHub is in constant development, and so far always for the better!

Virginie Sanchez found Parent Hub:
  • Significantly saves school money
    We have been able to send all school letters and communications to our 300+ parents and carers in high res, colourful pdf thus saving on printing/paper/mailing costs. Sending targeted, instant direct messages to contacts - with the ability to track whether messages have been read - has been a huge time (and therefore money) saver for our school.
  • Moderately improves school processes
    The most recent and significant impact of ParentHub for our school has been on maintaining clear, smooth communications at all levels during each lockdown : - the main school channel is fed by our Headteacher and Children and Families Officer (school life updates, mental health resources and support, COVID19 information, etc) - each class has its own channel where teachers can post specific timetables, links to remote learning, useful reminders etc. - direct messages also allow teaching or admin staff to easily offer additional resources/support to individual children. Together with our school website, ParentHub has been instrumental in reaching out to our families at this difficult time in a very simple, cost effective and immediate way.
  • Significantly improves parental engagement
    The functionalities developed by ParentHub have improved parent engagement greatly: - the interactive dates/times in messages allow parents to easily add to their calendar and remember school events/appointments easily. - the search function mean parents can easily find a specific message/piece of information in past communications. - quite a few parents use the "e-mail the school" direct button from the school page on ParentHub to contact us. At our end we have been able to monitor when a parent became less (or in-)active, which enabled us to proactively contact them and offer support where needed.

PA to the Headteacher

Used Parent Hub for 5 years+

Dec 2020

Parenthub is so easy to use, it is a fantastic way to be able to communicate with parents/carers. I use it daily to send home reminders, letters. We would have been completely lost without Parenthub during the COVID lockdown. The support is fantastic too, if I have ever been unsure of anything Mike is always available to help and talk me through. James has created and put together many a parent survey for us. All of the surveys have been great and easy for parents/carers to complete. I know that if there is ever anything I need or am unsure of, I can telephone or email and have a reply right away.

Lisa Watson found Parent Hub:
  • Significantly saves school money
    We use less paper & telephone calls
  • Significantly improves school processes
    Using Parenthub has had a huge impact and has made a considerable improvement to our communications between home and school with most of our parents and carers using the app.
  • Significantly improves parental engagement
    We have over 80% app coverage which is great!
