It has been tailored to address your specific communication needs, leading to outcomes such as maximised enrolments, engagement of every school community, the safe celebration of all achievements, the attraction and retention of high-calibre administration staff, and data that can be used for future strategy by your marketing and leadership personnel.

FAQ
Why should dioceses use Schoolzine?
The Schoolzine communications system has been built and refined based on direct feedback from dioceses, so we knew we were building exactly what they needed. We are now trusted by 11 dioceses – and more than 2,000 schools – across Australia. And we continue making improvements from dioceses feedback.
What are the main benefits to dioceses from using Schoolzine?
There are so many benefits for diocese who use Schoolzine, but the key benefits are central visibility across all schools, a single platform for websites, newsletters, governance, analytics, and centrally approved content, unlimited training and support from real people who really understand, and demonstrated platform safety and security. Schoolzine will save dioceses time, cost, and concern.
Is the Schoolzine system safe?
Yes, Schoolzine is safe. We have enterprise-grade security, ST4S-approved status, and our Image Guardian tool enables non-scrapable face blurring on images.
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.
