By offering an unlimited sms service for schools, staff can inform parents immediately when a child hasn’t arrived at school and changes in extra curricular activities can easily be relayed eliminating the problem of children not being picked up on time.
“We have had an incredible response from the 200 schools using the system, all of them stating that the communication and interaction between teachers and parents has increased dramatically.” says smsweb’s managing director, Salah Elbaba, adding, “When a child does not arrive at school in time, the parent can be informed immediately and should the child be missing, the whole school and all parents can be informed with only one sms.”
