For schools
School Run reads what your school already sends, works out what applies to each child, and gives that family one clear view. Saving time for your office staff, and sanity for your families.
The information isn't the problem. Finding it is.
Each system is doing its job. Email, the portal, the sports site, the newsletter, the lunch menu, the booking system. A parent working out what their child needs is doing six jobs.
Term dates, kit lists, trip forms, payment deadlines. All correct, all sent, all sitting behind every other reminder that arrived that week. A parent at one of our partner schools had no idea the performing arts hub existed. The school had linked to it eighteen times that year.
What kit tomorrow? What time is the match? Where was that form? Reception fields it, staff repeat themselves, and the answer was already in an email nobody could find.
A child arrives without the right thing, and the parent feels it for the rest of the day. They didn't stop paying attention. They're holding four systems and a term of dates in their head.
School Run reads what your school already shares for parents. Emails, the calendar, fixtures, menus, bookings. It sorts what applies to each child and puts it in front of that family as a short list of what's happening and what needs doing.
Families judge a school on the experience they get, and most of that experience is admin. School Run is the bit they handle every day. It should feel like the rest of what you offer.
No year groups that don't apply. No blanket sends. Their child's dates, their child's kit, their child's deadlines, with the reminder before the thing rather than after it.
Your MIS stays. Your portal stays. Your website, your sports system and your comms tool all stay. School Run reads them and does the sorting parents are currently doing by hand.
How it works
Three steps, and two of them are ours.
You carry on exactly as you are
Keep the MIS, the portal, the email, the sports and music sites. Nothing changes in how your staff work or what they send.
We connect to what you already produce
School Run reads the sources that parents are currently checking themselves and brings the relevant parts into one view per family.
Schools and families feel the benefit
Fewer repeat questions at reception. Fewer children arriving without the right kit. A slick experience for the families at your school.
See it for yourself
We're working with a small number of schools before we go wider. Tell us where you are and we'll show you how to kick off your school year right.
Who also build KompanyOS, the operating system that replaces the fragmented software a school runs on. School Run works on its own — you don't need one to have the other.
