SMS for Independent Schools
Run enrolment and open day campaigns, send urgent safety notices and remind families about tours and events.
Built for how independent schools communicate
An open day with empty seats or a weather warning that reaches parents too late both cost an independent school. Australian independent and boarding schools use SMS to invite prospective families to a personalised tour before enrolments close, send urgent notices when plans change at short notice, and remind current families about tours, twilight events and term dates.
Mobile Message sends from your school's name so families recognise it straight away, and every reply lands in one shared inbox your enrolments and admin teams can share. It's prepaid credits at 1.6¢ per message on your first purchase, no monthly fees and no contracts, so a single campus pays the same rate as a multi-campus school.
