Parents’ Evening – it’s a stressful event for any school, big or small.

Staff at Wadhurst Primary School were all too familiar with the issues surrounding parents’ evening. Staff and teachers set aside hours to sift through paper forms, organise teacher diaries, rebook and assign appointments – time that neither admin staff or teachers could afford to give up.

Fortunately, Parents’ Evening Manager by ParentMail provides an ideal solution, making booking appointments easy for both schools and parents. Wadhurst Primary School was eager to give it a go!

With 96% of their parents already registered to ParentMail, staff were delighted to receive a fantastic response from parents. Less than a week left before Parents’ Evening, two thirds of parents had already responded!

Not only were parents responding in time, their feedback to the school was extremely positive; one father stopped by the school to express how thrilled he was at being able to book all of his appointments in less than five minutes!

With Parents’ Evening Manager, set-up is incredibly quick, easy and flexible, allowing schools to invite particular year and registration groups, the option to include a location, parent comments, subject tutors and booking windows, and the ability to set reminders.

For parents, the process is short and simple – after receiving the notification from their school, they select the teachers they wish to see and an available slot to meet with them, all from their ParentMail account.

With Parents’ Evening just around the corner, now is the time to introduce Parents’ Evening Manager!

Invest in saving time at your school and enjoy a smooth and organised Parents’ Evening this year.
