I was recently sent the link for MailChimp and immediately thought that it could be a useful tool for teachers. Teachers of the 21st century are constantly looking for new ways to inform parents electronically and en masse, since it’s one of the quickest and most effective ways to communicate with their clients. MailChimp does just that and would be more suited to individuals who regularly send out group notices or bulk emails. The website offers various newsletter templates and options to customise your campaign (newsletter). It’s certainly well worth checking out if you manage a club or specialised group within the school and are required to regularly inform the school community, or if you’re a teacher who’s expected to send out class newsletters to parents each term.
