How it works:

Text Someone works by the provision of a mobile telephone number and local rate phone number to a school. These numbers can then be promoted by the school using a range of posters, press releases to the local press and, most importantly, a card that the school provides for each pupil. This card contains details of the Text Someone numbers for pupils to carry with them at all times. Click here for an brochure.

Whenever a message is sent by a school pupil, it will appear automatically on the Text Someone secure system in school. The school will then log in using an ID and password specific to only them, the system displays all the text messages, voice messages and emails that pupils have sent in. The system can even send school staff a text message or email alerting them to a new message from a pupil.

Any messages received can be followed up using the same method, so for example a text message in can be responded to by a text message back. This provides a timed and dated record of the message in and the follow up taken. Should more urgent and personal follow up be required pupil contact details are displayed next to the message that has been sent in.
