Notifications and messages

The bell in the top bar shows your notifications, with a count of unread ones.

Your inbox

The Inbox lists notifications sent to you, for example:

• holiday reminders, ahead of a school holiday;
• messages from the School Owner or School Admins;
• for the School Owner, a notice whenever a fee payment is reversed.

You can mark one as read, mark all as read, archive notifications, and bring archived ones back. Archived notifications older than 90 days can be cleared.

Sending a message to staff

The School Owner and School Admins can send direct messages from the Direct Messages tab:

1. Write the message and choose who receives it.
2. Send it now, save it as a draft, or schedule it for later.

Drafts and scheduled messages can still be edited. Once sent, a message cannot be changed.

On your lock screen

If you allow it in your preferences, unread notifications appear on your lock screen. Tapping one opens it once you have entered your PIN.

Pop-ups and sounds

New notifications can pop up briefly with a tone. Choose where they appear, how long they stay, and the tone and volume in your preferences.
