EdSmart
Riverside High School will be transitioning to a new messaging platform for communicating with parents. This will eventually replace our current system MGM.
The new platform, called EdSmart is an Australian platform which is designed to improve communication in school communities by allowing electronic messaging i.e. SMS and emails. It will be used to manage absences messages i.e. you will receive a SMS or email alert if your child is absent from school requesting a response. It will also allow us to send a communication message to all parent/guardians.
The platform will, over time, be rolled out across all Tasmanian Government Schools and new features will be added.
You will receive a text message and/or an email with further details. Note, the text message sender will be a shortened version of our school’s name - Please keep an eye out for it!
EdSmart will start at Riverside on Monday 8th April, for the time being we will still be using our current MGM system.
