One app for your whole school

Less noise. Real control. One simple app.

Chalkboard replaces the endless WhatsApp group with one calm app — homework, calendar, payments, one‑tap emergency alerts and a free resource Library. Each parent sees only their own child. It's completely free for the school and every teacher.

The problem

You already have a WhatsApp group — and it's exhausting

Everyone sees everything. Notices vanish in the scroll. Teachers get messages at 10pm. And it still can't track homework, take payments, or reach every parent in an emergency. Chalkboard does all of that — and it's simpler, not more work.

How it works

Live in three simple steps

No setup cost, no IT project, no groups to police. The school is free; parents subscribe in‑app.

The school joins — free

Chalkboard is free for the school and every teacher. We set up your school and classes; nothing to install on the office side.

Invite your parents

Send one invite link by WhatsApp or email. Parents download the app, find their child, and they're in — no numbers shared, no group admin.

Parents subscribe in‑app

Parents pay in‑app through Apple or Google. Billing, renewals and receipts are automatic — nothing for the school to collect or manage.

Everything inside the app

One app that does what five apps and a paper diary can't

Only your child's world

Each parent sees only their own child — homework, sport, notices, payments. Tap to switch between siblings. No noise, ever.

Homework & tasks

Every task, test and project tracked. Parents tick it off; teachers see real‑time completion across the class.

Smart calendar

Tests, fixtures, fee due‑dates and meetings appear automatically, tagged to the child. Tap a venue and the map opens.

One‑tap emergency

In a crisis the office taps once and every parent is alerted in under 60 seconds — with live read receipts.

Medical & allergy cards

Allergies, conditions and medicine duty‑of‑care are three seconds away for staff — and logged automatically.

In‑app payments

School fees, camps, civvies and the tuck shop — paid in one tap, with a receipt every time. No more cash in envelopes.

Built for everyone
