Communication – Xpressions App for Parents

As many of you are aware we have been streamlining our communication to parents/carers. The main issues with our previous system is that it only allowed us to contact one parent/carer for each child and charged us for very short text messages.

Our new system is through the Groupcall Xpressions app which can be downloaded free from app stores on android and apple devices. The main benefit of this system is that any communication (text and emails) from Broomhill Primary School will all be sent to the app. The app can be set to notify you when you receive a text and/or email. This is free for the school to use and for parents/carers to access.

  • Parents just need to search for Groupcall Xpressions from their app store to download the app.
  • Parents can also visit xpressions.groupcall.com to view their account from an internet browser.

More than one parent/carer can download the app and receive information at no cost.

Please ensure that our school has the correct email address for all users. If you logged on using the Parent Evening Booking System the school will have the correct information for you.

Traditional texts will only be sent at times of emergency e.g. unreported absences, school closures, cancelled events at short notice, etc. We are allocated 60 texts per child for the year after this texts will be charged to the school.

Please contact the school office if you wish to check that we have your correct details, or need help to download theĀ Groupcall Xpressions app.

We also use our new website and Twitter to share events and information with the school community.

Thank you for your patience as we continue to work to improve our communication and we hope that you will find the new system efficient and easy to use.
