Your child's school uses String

Your child's school is on String? Its whole school day opens for you, inside the same app.

The app works entirely without a school. If your child's school is on String, nine screens more open — among them attendance, forms, messaging teachers, grades, and the teacher's daily note. You pay nothing for them.

Good morning

Sample data

Nine screens, opening all at once

  • Attendance and absence

    A monthly attendance calendar, with counters for present, absent and late.

  • Forms and signatures

    Sign with your finger and the signature reaches the school immediately.

  • Messages

    You write to them, or send a voice note, and you see when it was read.

  • Announcements

    The school's announcements on one side, your child's class on the other.

  • Tomorrow's bag

    Tomorrow's list from the school's own timetable: the books and the uniform.

  • The way there and back

    Their usual way, with a 7-day log and the arrival time each day.

  • The grades card

    The grade broken into its parts, not one opaque number at the end of term.

  • Upcoming tests

    The exam topics as the teacher published them, and a revision plan in three steps.

  • The teacher's note

    The teacher's note reaches you each day, written in their name.

All of this works without a school. What a school adds is its own school day.

Everyone who teaches your child, in one list

Six teachers by name and subject, the principal, the academic counsellor, the nurse and the school office. You write to them, or send a voice note, and you see when it was read. No phone numbers, and no WhatsApp group with forty parents in it.

What needs your signature, and what only needs seeing

Sample data

“Dead Sea school trip permission”: 6 questions, about 3 minutes, and it has been waiting for you 3 days. Sign with your finger and it reaches the school immediately. No sheet forgotten at the bottom of a bag.

  • All
  • School announcements
  • Your child's class
  • Unread

The school's announcements on one side, your child's class on the other. Anything that needs something from you arrives marked, so it doesn't disappear into the rest.

Did they arrive, when did they arrive, and what do they need tomorrow

A monthly attendance calendar, with counters for present, absent and late. Their usual way there and back — “school bus 12 with Mr Khalil” — with a 7-day log and the arrival time each day. And tomorrow's list from the school's own timetable: 3 books and the uniform, which you go through with them in a minute.

The grade, and where it came from

Maths 84 out of 100, broken out: first test 80, second 85, homework, short tests, the final, the project. Not one opaque number at the end of term.

Maths

  • The project
32%Ready now

“Short maths test · tomorrow · they're 32% ready · needs focus.” With the exam topics as the teacher published them, and a revision plan in three steps.

That readiness is worked out from your child's play alone. The school adds the date and the topics, and “needs to revise fractions” becomes “you have one evening.”

What the school adds to the read

Readiness becomes readiness for a dated test, not for a topic. The daily read is read from the play and the school day together, not from the play alone. The teacher's note reaches you each day, in their name. And the optional class-average comparison unlocks, folded inside “Learn more.”

How to connect the school, and what to do if you can't

  • Our school is on String

    Download the app and connect the school from inside it.

  • I don't know

    Search for the school's name inside the app. If you find it, it is on String.

  • Our school is not on String

    The whole app works for you from today. Write the school's name below and we will approach them.

Write your child's school's name

Nothing waits on this request — the app works for you today exactly as it is. And if the school joins, every screen on this page fills in.

The name as it appears on the school, even if it is not exact.

So we can tell you when your child's school is ready. We use it for nothing else.

Add details that speed this up

All optional. Add what you know and leave the rest.

We use your email to tell you about your child's school and nothing else. No mailing list, and we do not give the school your name.

Or write to us directly

If you would rather not fill in a form, send your child's school name and its city to our email or over WhatsApp. We treat it exactly as we treat any request.

You start. The school catches up.
