Correspond with Multiple Students Video

This video demonstrates how to communicate with students in bulk using Staff Kiosk. It covers three main methods: sending emails, SMS messages, or alerts from the My Timetable section for entire classes; using saved lists for subject classes, extracurricular groups, or custom templates; and generating correspondence on the fly through dual-purpose reports that allow filtering by criteria such as year group. The tutorial also explains customising recipients, adding attachments, and finalising email details before sending.
