How do I view and respond? I can only find information about a business site – is a school the same?

I would carefully consider the implications of sharing your calendar outside of your domain and check your school’s policies/obtain permissions before doing this. As to the questions about sharing rights – you are right it is a setting in the Google Admin console and can only be changed by your schools Admin.

I was just wondering what SMS you use. Wouldn’t setting up and maintaining parent emails in the admin console be labour intensive? Whereas utilising your SMS would be so much more efficient as it is always dynamic?

Just a thought …

Then this gets updated by my office administrator whenever we get a changed e-mail address.

This leads to then adding parents to class e-mails as well. Much easier to push one label for emailing a different year or class groups.
