In this guide we’ll look at how you can view and send Messages using the new Teacher App.
The Teacher App is designed to help Teachers complete their day to day tasks, on the go, quickly and easily and is free to download from the App Store for iPhones or Google Play Store for other devices.
From the Modules screen, select Messages in the tool bar across the bottom.
By default, the Messages page will open to your Focused inbox, this includes conversations that have been active within the last 90 days. After the conversation has been inactive for 90 days, it will move into your Archived inbox which you can access by selecting the Archived tab across the top.
Clicking on one of the conversations will open so you can view the message history. You can also reply by typing your Message in the Send a Message field at the bottom, then clicking the paper airplane icon.
To send a Message to a someone you have not yet begun a conversation with, you can select the Contacts icon at the top of the Messages page.
This will load a list of people you can send Messages to. Using the tabs across the top you can select whether the person you are sending a Message to is a Student, Staff or a Parent. You can use the Search bar to refine the list. Click on the required person to send a Message.
