Turn on the school Community
A screen recording of Pearspark doing exactly this in a sample school, and the same 5 steps written out below in the labels you'll see on screen.
How to turn on the school Community
- 1Click Settings under Administration in the sidebar, then the "Modules & campuses" tab
- 2Tick the Community checkbox — the module ships off, like Rubrics
- 3Click Save changes; Community appears in the sidebar under Communication
- 4Open Community, then Spaces: the whole-school room, each class, volunteer teams and a new-families room are already there and follow the rosters
- 5Turning the module on also adds a "Community" section to Settings
Part of Messages & announcements
One compose reaches every family's portal inbox — plus teacher-to-family threads and an oversight search so leadership can stand behind every message.
