Extranets

An extranet is a website that is normally designed and configured with restricted access to a closed-user group outside of the school – typically parents, but also including other significant stakeholders such as Governors.

Extranets unite a community with a specific shared interest and act as a conduit for a flow of information. They are the perfect tool for:

  • keeping databases of parents and staff complete with contact details
  • maintaining specific calendars of activity
  • sharing news with parents
  • communicating urgent or important announcements
