 Send Child Related Alerts if any: During the class activity if you notice any activity performed by child especially if it is Positive Send a Positive note to parent about this activity, attach relevant picture if applicable. (Send only to that child). Also if you notice a child is not behaving correctly in spite of repeated attempts to resolve it an Alert to child’s parent can be sent.

Ex a moment in computer Lab or Science Lab practice or a PT Drill being performed or Field trip are even good moments to be covered.

Important Care / Don’ts

While VMS is extremely easy to use, some care and precaution should be exercised.

 Choose Grades/Section/Child properly:

Double check the recipient before sending the message. Do not click send to all if you want to send only to a particular child or a section.

 Check Outbox – Do not Re-Send Message:

After you have sent messages, check outbox for green tick mark. If the tick is not green it means there is some Internet connectivity problem on your device. Do not Re-Send the message, make sure you have proper Internet, press the Sync button on top of Outbox and go to App Dashboard screen and click outbox again to check if the messages have gone.

 English / Grammar

Message coming from an Institution is expected to be correct in its English and Grammar. Please do not use abbreviations or short forms unless necessary. Also double check yourenglish and grammar before you hit the send button.

 Do not send Negative Remarks to parents frequently

Occasionally alerting parent about his child’s behaviour is ok and considered positive, but overdoing on that is not good.

Do not send Picture of Same group of child to parents of entire grade/section

Avoid sending pictures or achievements of same group of child to all parents in grade/section. This causes a complex situation and can do more harm then benefit
