Hello and welcome back!
We hope you had a really refreshing summer, and if possible that you found yourself sipping a piña colada on a beach somewhere!
While you were away, we were busy adding more features to help you make this the best year of parents’ evenings yet.
Here’s a quick summary:
We are certain Hybrid parents’ evenings are the best way to achieve the highest attendance possible. Schools who pay for the video module can now set up Hybrid meetings. Just create a different block of time for each “session” and decide which are video sessions and which are in-person. The video to the right explains more about this great news functionality.
Free trial of our basic Events and Clubs module through to 1st January 2023. This module usually costs an additional 25p per student, per year, but we wanted all schools who don’t currently pay for the premium version of this module to have the benefit of the basic version, to help them set up events, clubs and their Christmas performances.

Custom Groups: If your school sets up and uses ‘Custom Groups’ in its MIS database, you can import these using our Wonde integration (and we’ll add this functionality to other integrations soon).
More info on how to import and use Custom Groups here: https://knowledge.parents-booking.com/importing-and-using-custom-groups/
Teacher First Name or Initial? Schools who import their data via Wonde can now choose whether to show the the teacher’s forename or initial to parents. This was important for some schools, who wanted to show an Initial rather than Forename. Change this by going to Set Up School > Preferences page.
Updated Guides: We have also significantly updated these important guides to reflect lots of new functionality added to Parents Booking over the last year.
