If you feel that your comms is in a tangle managing a parent portal, newsletter, website, seesaw, hey throw in Facebook too, then it’s probably time for a rethink.
We'll unpack the one vehicle common to all schools, the newsletter, and use it to highlight that any writing must be informed by a strategy. And don't worry, strategy number one is 'write less'.
We'll get you communicating with outcomes that serve both the parents and the school.
