Being on top of your child’s academic and transportation affairs can be overwhelming. This becomes even more challenging when you have more than one child! Getting your children ready to school with all that they need, making sure they are prepared for tests, providing them with the support on homework, preparing outfits for sport days, remembering all events and activity days, taking children to the bus station at the appropriate time, and finding children ready at the gate during dismissal time can all be hard to track.

With DirectSchoolTM, you will receive timely notifications of all of the above for all of your children through one App. You will rest assured that you are on top of all academic-related affairs such as homework, tests, events, activities, and key messages as well as the transportation of your child. Therefore, DirectSchool does not only replace old-school communication books, but it also adds extra capabilities like the organization of due dates and the automated support of the transportation systems (buses and private cars).
