Engage School Parent App
How does it work?
Improve school-parent communication
The Engage App provides parents with quick and secure access using their Parent Portal login credentials. They can view attendance data, assessment reports, account balances, school notices and timetables, and even sync their personal calendar with the School Calendar.
Real-time notifications and built-in tools ensure no event, message, or deadline is missed. Parents can respond instantly via click-to-call or click-to-email, making parent-teacher communication smoother. Learn how we support transparent parent access with our multi-language and inclusive communication approach.
Families can manage activities and payments directly in the app through a user-friendly online booking feature that seamlessly integrates with school processes. It’s included in the standard Engage subscription, has been tested for security, and is simple for both parents and staff to use.
Customise the App for your school
A customised version allows each school to bring its identity to life, matching colour schemes, logos, and imagery while running smoothly across iOS, Android, and Windows (via Edge PWA). The Engage App is part of a comprehensive suite of communication tools within the Engage school management system, offering premium features that simplify administration and enhance the learning environment for everyone.
