Sending Communications to a Group of Teachers/Non-Teachers
1. Use the filters at the top of the screen to create a list of teachers/non-teachers to include in your communication.
Use the 'Staff' button to filter your list to include:
Heads of Departments.
Heads of Year.
Heads of House.
Department Administrators.
Year Administrators.
House Administrators.
2. Select the 'All' box on the right hand side of the screen to select all staff on the list, or tick the appropriate staff to include in the communication.
3. Using the 'I want to...' button, nominate your method of communication:
Generate Emails
Click on Generate Emails
Click Next.
Enter email message, and add attachments and additional recipients (if required).
Enter the Communication Log Category and optional comment.
Click Send.
Send SMS Messages
Enter the SMS message.
Click GO.
Create Notifications
Enter the notification details: Start/End time of the notification, along with the message.
Click GO
The communication details will be visible to this staff member in his/her Staff Kiosk Toolbar Toolbar according to the start and end times that you entered.
If the 'I want to...' button looks dull, then no staff have been selected as detailed in Step 2.
If there is a 'red alert' in one of the columns, hover over the icon to view the reason that the communication can't be sent for that staff member.
Icons will be inactive if you have not been given the required permissions for these functions.
The communication details will be logged in theirs, and your, Communication Log in Staff Kiosk.
