- How to send a message
- What the folders are
Messages is the mailbox inside the system. It is how you contact the school about the person you look after.
Step 1. Click Messages in the left-hand menu.
Step 2. Click Compose.
Step 3. Choose who to write to, type a subject and your message.
Step 4. Send it.
- Inbox
- Messages sent to you.
- Starred
- Messages you have marked to come back to.
- Sent
- Messages you have sent.
- Drafts
- Messages you started but have not sent.
Nobody's email address is shown
Messaging works by name. No email address is shown or shared, in either direction. That is why no screen here shows contact details.
What you should see
The message appears in your Sent folder and in the recipient's inbox.
Helpful tips
- Say which student you mean and which class. Tutors teach a lot of people.
- Messaging through the system keeps the conversation with the course record.
