Parents Evening Booking: Option to book slots after booking window closed
To enhance flexibility, staff should be able to book slots for parents after the Parents' Evening booking window closes.
This accommodates parents who missed the initial booking period.
While we could allow schools to extend the booking window, some schools may prefer to restrict booking access, either by reserving slots for specific parents or enabling selected parents to book.

Allow schools to reopen a closed Parents Evening block
When you set the close date for your parents evening block, and this comes around - there is currently no way to reopen. This would be really useful if there become additional times available, if dates change or if a number of parents haven't been able to book on already.

Parents Evening Booking - confirmation to be sent to booking parent only
It would greatly enhance the user experience if, upon booking a slot, parents immediately received a confirmation email. This email should serve to reassure them that their booking has been successfully made, while also providing details such as the date and time of the booking.
This measure would not only confirm the reservation to the parent but also sets the expectation that they should receive an email upon successfully saving their booking. Implementing this feature can effectively mitigate potential issues where a parent reserves a slot but overlooks the step of saving the booking to confirm it.

Parents Evening - ability to see parent view
When setting up a parents evening event, it would be helpful for the school to be able to see the parent's view of the event/have a 'test' parent account so that they can check everything from a parent perspective before making the event live.

Videos to display in Mobile App
Videos added to websites, such as on a page or news article, do not display in the Mobile App.
Currently, this feature does not exist within the Mobile App as we do not have a video player to facilitate it.
However, incorporating this feature would be beneficial to schools that encourage parents to view the website via the mobile app as it would provide them with a true representation of what the website pages actually look like.

Parents Evening Booking: 'BOOK THIS SLOT' text
Schools have mentioned that when parents log in and navigate to this section to book slots, currently the text 'BOOK THIS SLOT' is only visible upon hovering the cursor over it, which is feasible only on desktops.
However, the majority of parents access the website using mobile devices, where hovering is not possible due to the absence of a cursor. Consequently, they are unable to see this important wording.
It would be beneficial to ensure that the text is always visible on both desktop and mobile interfaces for accessibility reasons.

Parents Evening Booking: reserved vs booked
When a parent reserves their slot, sometimes there is a confusion between when a slot has been 'reserved' and 'booked', as some parents think that when a slot has been reserved that this is the same as it being booked.
To prevent any confusion it would be useful to include the following to the "reserved for 10 mins" notice:
"In order to confirm your booking please press the 'Save' button."
If a parent does not click the 'save' button then another parent can take that slot.

MarvellousMe - schedule an activity to send at a later date/time
It would be helpful to schools if they had the option to set the time/date an activity or message should be sent. At present, the school can write out their message/select an activity and press send and this is delivered immediately. We have had some schools asking for the ability to select a specific date/time for the message to send.

School enabling of email open/click statistics
On a previous system I used (which was much more basic in most other ways) when sending emails and texts I could see a list showing if they were received and opened, this gave us good insight into enagagement of parents and details of who had opened it and also when there was a problem with an address. This is particularly important as often comms sent are important - re covid, weather, oftsed or important meetings.

School name displayed in inbox when sending emails
Parents with children in more than one school using Primary Site have suggested being able to change the sender to the school name rather than notifications@primarysite...so they easily know which school it relates to as it would show the school's name in their inbox
