Education

Communication with all concerned in education is vital. There are so many things to remember and so many events that parents and pupils need to be informed about. Make sure that nothing is ever missed by using Intxt.

The list of uses for Intxt in the education sector is endless. Here are a few of the ways in which it can be used:

  • Notify of unexpected and planned closures
  • Inform parents about absences and detentions
  • Send reminders about special trips
  • Schedule parents evenings, open days and other events
  • Remind parents about non-uniform days and charity events
  • Relay dates for exams, results and deadlines for course work
  • Inform your waiting list about available spaces in nursery, schools and universities

The beauty of Intxt is that it allows two-way communication by text message for those times when a response is needed. As an example, parents can confirm attendance of a child on a school trip, without having to rely on the child taking a piece of paper into school. All parents and guardians collecting their respective children after a school trip can all be informed of any delays in the return journey in one hit. All you need to have done is set them up as a group within Intxt in advance of the trip.

Intxt can be used to convey news of any kind, such as exam results, course availability, course work deadlines, changes of venue and tutor. For sports and activities, educational establishments can advise of training and practice sessions, match or event amendments and team selections.

QR codes can be used around any school or university to convey vital messages or guide students to homework or lesson downloads.

Communication with pupils and parents alike is a vital component of Ofstead reports for schools and is key to achieving a good ranking in university and college league tables. You can use Intxt to increase the efficiency and reduce the cost of your communications, allowing your educational establishment to excel in this important area.

Client Testimonials

"We looked at several options but liked the way Intxt can send bulk texts quickly and provide us with reply updates to suit the needs of our business. We were surprised by the speed and accuracy of the responses and also by the amount of business we have generated from the campaigns. I have recommended Intxt to several companies all of which have been more than happy with the results. "

"I have found Intxt a fantastic company to work with, very professional and in every campaign, they have offered valuable advice and assisted me in choosing the right promotion for us. Other than putting together a sentence for the actual text message, all of the work and effort is dealt with by Intxt, leaving very little for me to do. We received daily reports listing enquiries and responses and I would have no hesitation in recommending Intxt to other companies considering doing SMS marketing."

"Intxt has provided our business with the opportunity to deploy SMS campaigns in order to contact clients through an alternative channel. We have seen huge impact through SMS, driving sales and engagement. Intxt provide an outstanding service - on call whenever we need a campaign deployed as well as being extremely helpful and informative. I would definitely recommend Intxt."

"I have been using the services of Intext (Hourglass Technologies) for the last year. The advice that they have given me, because I am new to this business, has been unbiased and invaluable.
