’21st Century Digital Leader’ Recommends Schoop in open letter to Schools
A recommendation from Evenlode Primary School, Penarth
We introduced Schoop last September, and the ease of using Schoop and the ability to use the app on many different devices meant it became our immediate port of call when we needed to get messages home, engage with parents, and promote “at home” learning.
Over the following few months we began to send all documentation through Schoop, e.g. school trip letters, homework, weekly spellings etc. As a staff we were so thrilled with how quick and easy it was to use that it was decided to approach Schoop again and see if they could also build us a website with Schoop fully integrated.
To our delight we now have a website that would envy any professional organisation, and the amount of time saved to our teachers has been phenomenal. We confidently put information on in one place and know that that information, be it a school trip letter, urgent notice or even news directly from a school trip etc will appear on our website and on Schoop at the same time.
This makes communication between the home and community more reliable and immediate, giving no member of our school community an excuse to not know what is happening. The added bonus for us was that the people at Schoop recognised our need for simplicity and efficiency, they also took on board the wide variety of computer knowledge within our school. Even our staff with very limited IT expertise can easily upload videos, pictures, documents etc on the website and can easily send messages and engagement features through Schoop.
The difference to our school has been incredible. Staff, parents, pupils really ARE in the loop because of Schoop and the possibilities for the future are even greater. We fully intend to start blogging, accessing our Office 365 accounts and much more all through our website and Schoop. For us Schoop is our one stop shop for all our schools IT needs. The company are fully aware, patient and understanding of the hectic life of a school teacher and their one wish is to make life easier for us. What more could any school ask for? I would be happy to hear from any other school who wish to use Schoop and have any questions. From one IT coordinator to another – make your lives easier and get Schoop.”
