“As a school we are always eager to maximise and simplify the ways we communicate with parents and we acknowledge that parent-to-parent communications are as valuableas school-to-parent communications for our broader school community. Revisions to Data Protection laws a number of years ago now prohibit us from distributing parent contact detailsas part of class lists. Therefore the development and implementation of apps designed to overcome this hurdle will be much welcomed by us at St Faith’s and no doubt throughout the education sector.” Brendan Mageean, Director of Communications, St Faiths, Cambridge UK “mySircles is a quick and efficient way for parents to communicate and connect with each other; to ask each other the kind of incidental questions they might ask each other at the school gates. Over the years Spinney parents have used their initiative to organise What’sApp and Facebook groups, so we know that the need for an APP like this is out there. mySircles seems like the perfect solution! We have decided to roll mySircles out across the school.” Rachel Snape, Head Mistress, Spinney Primary, Cambridge UK.

About the innovation

Connecting parents to build stronger communities

mySircles is an app that is designed to build stronger parenting communities. We all rely on technology to help facilitate communication and as parents use a variety of tools from text messaging, to email to social networks.

mySircles is removes all confusion around where communication took place and gives parents a way of managing all school-related information in a single place. It's easy to see who the other parents are in your child's class and reach out to them either via the Sircles on one-to-one. Also, important information can be pinned until no longer needed.
