Communication & Collaboration

Messages, Class Discussions, Newsletters and Moments, for Staff, Parents and Students

Every School Conversation, in One Place

A school runs on conversations, and most of them still scatter across phone calls, paper slips and personal messaging groups. SCL brings them into one system: private messages between staff and families, class discussion boards for students, newsletters to any audience you can define, and a weekly bulletin that composes itself from what teachers have already recorded.Each conversation reaches people where they already are. Parents and students read in the mobile app or the web portal in their own language, and every person chooses which notifications they want, event by event, so the messages that matter are not lost in noise.Leadership keeps oversight without reading over anyone's shoulder. Messages Audit gives heads of school a read-only view of teacher conversations with parents and students, and opening one never marks it as seen.

Private Messages

Staff, parents and students message each other inside SCL, with attachments and recorded voice clips instead of another phone number. Schools decide who may message whom, and whether messages can be deleted at all.

Class Discussions

Every class gets a discussion board where a teacher posts an Announcement, asks a Question or opens a Discussion. Students reply, react and attach files, and the teacher marks the reply that settles it as the Best Answer.

Moderation That Fits the Class

Student posting stays off until you turn it on, board by board. Topics and replies can wait for a moderator's approval, quiet threads lock themselves after a set number of days, and teachers pin what matters to the top.

Moments

Teachers share classroom photos and videos with the parents and students of a classroom, mentioning the students who appear in them. Families see the moment in the app and can like it, with no public social network involved.

Shared Files and Reading Time

Share folders from private storage with classes, students and parents. For PDFs opened inside SCL, teachers see how long each student read and how many pages they reached, so a set text is never just assumed to be read.

Weekly Bulletin

A weekly page for each student, composed automatically from the gradebook and other modules, with teachers adding their own notes by category. Parents and students open the week and see what was covered.

Newsletters to Every Audience

Send as email, SMS or a private message, to whole grades, specific classrooms, all teachers, applicants or the entire school. SCL estimates the recipients before you send and shows you exactly who is on the list.

Reusable Recipient Lists

Build a list once from user groups or classrooms, name it, and send to it again next term. Teachers keep their own lists for private messages, so a regular group is never rebuilt by hand.

Read Receipts

For private messages, and for newsletters sent as private messages, senders see who has opened each one and when. Follow up with the families who have not read it instead of resending to everybody.

Scheduled Sending and Recall

Write a newsletter now and schedule it for the date and time it should land. If something changes before it is read, retract the send, and SCL records exactly how many messages were pulled back.

Messages Audit

Heads of school get a live, read-only view of teacher conversations with parents and students, with peak hour and reply statistics. Opening a conversation here never marks it as seen by anyone.

School Calendar

School events and holidays sit on one shared calendar, colour coded by the event types you define. Heads of department also see unit start and end dates from the curriculum planner laid over it.
