About SyncPoint Notify

The simplest way for schools to reach every parent.

SyncPoint Notify is a parent-communication platform built for South African schools. It keeps every learner's guardians in one place, so the right message reaches the right families — by grade, class, or child — in seconds.

Our mission

Make reaching families fast, accurate, and private

Schools shouldn't have to wrestle with spreadsheets, group chats, or paper slips to tell parents something important. We built SyncPoint Notify so any approved staff member can send a clear, targeted message in moments — and trust that it lands with exactly the right families.

Just as importantly, every school's data stays its own. Privacy isn't a feature we bolt on; it's how the product is built from the ground up.

Right message, right families

Target everyone, a grade, a class, or a single learner.

Sent in seconds

Compose once and deliver by SMS immediately.

Confidence it arrived

Delivery receipts and message history for every send.

Who it's for

Built for the way schools actually work

Primary & secondary schools

Front offices that need to reach families quickly for daily notices, changes, and emergencies.

Multi-campus groups

School groups running several sites, each kept fully separate and private in its own workspace.

Admin & teaching staff

Anyone approved to communicate — with role-based access so sending stays in the right hands.

How it works

From sign-up to sent in four steps

Step 1

Create your school

Sign up and your school's private workspace is ready in moments.

Step 2

Add students & guardians

Organise learners by grade and class, each with their parent contacts. Import from CSV in one step.

Step 3

Send the message

Pick your audience — everyone, a grade, a class, or a single learner — preview, and deliver by SMS.

Step 4

Schedule & track

Send now or schedule ahead, set recurring notices, and watch delivery receipts land in real time.

Works with SA-SAMS

Bring your learners across in minutes

Most South African schools already keep their learner and guardian records in SA-SAMS. Rather than retyping everything, you simply export from SA-SAMS and upload the file — SyncPoint Notify recognises the columns for you.

It also reads plain CSV and Excel spreadsheets, so however your data is stored, getting started is a quick, non-destructive import — existing learners are updated, never wiped.

Smart column detection

The importer maps SA-SAMS, CSV and Excel columns automatically — learner name, grade, class, admission number and guardian cell — and asks you to confirm anything it's unsure about.

Sensitive data left out

ID numbers, medical notes, addresses and results are recognised and never imported. Only what's needed to message parents is kept.

Import & export

Pull learners in from SA-SAMS exports, and export your message history and contacts back out to CSV whenever you need them.

Built on trust

Privacy that's designed in, not bolted on

Every school gets an isolated workspace. Learner and guardian information belongs to the school that added it — never shared, never mixed, never sold.
