SZapp
Does your school have a parent mobile app?
If it does, it’s likely available via your student management system, and unless you’re actively seeking change, you probably won’t require our SZapp product.
If it doesn’t, then SZApp could be just the thing you need to send instant push notifications, keep parents and guardians up to date with important school news and announcements, and give families quick and easy access to the information they need, all in one convenient place.
The features liked by parents/guardians
SZApp makes it easy for parents and guardians to stay connected with their school. They can receive instant notifications and important updates, quickly access school information, and submit things like absentee notifications and permission forms, all from one convenient place.
Another channel
SZapp provides another bridge to parents and guardians. A late bus, a closed school due to weather – instant notifications can be very easily sent to all families, or to tailored recipients where it doesn’t concern all.
Emergency notifications
You hear a message, you check your phone. Using SZapp helps to ensure emergency notifications (illnesses, weather threats) are read by the majority of parents/guardians.
Parent messages made easy
You can have tiles in SZapp that link to your forms (such as an absentee form), so all parents need to do is click, complete and submit.
Quick link to newsletters
Parents can access the latest newsletter from a SZapp tile, giving them another reminder to check for updates and celebrate the latest school and student achievements.

What makes Schoolzine different to other education communication platforms?
Schoolzine’s difference is our team. We are all human (no bots). We live locally, across Australia and NZ. And we live and breathe education communication systems – and that’s all we do. Our focus is 100% on maintaining and improving a system that simply works, and works simply. We understand dioceses, large schools, small schools, multi-campus schools, and we understand your specific needs and nuances. We’ve built the Schoolzine system and implemented updates purely based on diocese and school feedback, to ensure it really does address your needs, even when things change. We also offer unlimited training and support. And you will always get a quick response, and a human answering the phone.
How much does Schoolzine cost?
The cost of Schoolzine depends on which tools you choose to use. We’re about one third of the price of some comparable tools on the market, and could work out less expensive than the cost of using manual tools such as phones and spreadsheets. For small schools, you can use the same platform big schools use, scaled for your budget.
Can I trial Schoolzine to see if it’s right for us?
Yes, we offer a free demonstration of the system so you can see how it works and understand the benefits it can bring. Book a demo here.
