SCHOOL COMMUNITY CALENDAR

An online calendar for schools that's easy and accessible

More engagement from parents, less work for your staff

Traditional PDF Calendars: Outdated and Inefficient

Historically, school calendars were created as PDF documents using Microsoft Word or Excel, then printed and uploaded to school websites. While familiar, this method presents significant issues:

  • Mobile Incompatibility: PDF calendars are difficult to view on mobile devices, a primary access point for most users.
  • Update Inefficiency: Modifying a PDF is time-consuming, requiring re-uploading and potentially causing confusion with outdated printed versions.
  • User Inconvenience: Manually transferring events from a PDF to a personal calendar is both labor-intensive and prone to errors.

The Events Calendar Pro:
A Modern Solution for Schools

For schools using WordPress, The Events Calendar offers a sleek, mobile-responsive solution that transforms how you manage and display events.

Why Make the Switch?

  • Device Compatibility: Seamlessly adapts to desktops, tablets, and smartphones, making it easy for parents and staff to access event information anytime, anywhere.
  • Effortless Updates: Modify events quickly—reschedule or add new events with ease, saving time and reducing errors.
  • Event Subscriptions: Parents can subscribe to the school calendar and sync events directly to their personal calendars, ensuring they stay informed.
  • Customisable Features: Tailor your calendar to suit your needs, featuring events to boost attendance.
  • Multiple Views: Choose between viewing events by week, month, or in a list format, all integrated smoothly into your WordPress site.

Handling Large Numbers of Events:
Event Aggregator

If your school hosts hundreds of events per year, Event Aggregator simplifies the process by allowing you to import events via a CSV file. Just:

  • Enter event details in Excel
  • Export as a CSV file
  • Upload to automatically create events on your calendar

Note: While the Event Aggregator does not support importing recurring events directly, you can easily import the first event as a single occurrence, then edit it to become a recurring event.

Collaborative Event Management:
Custom User Roles

Managing a school calendar often involves input from multiple staff members. To streamline this, we have created a custom version of The Events Calendar:

  • Custom User Roles for The Events Calendar: Assign a “Staff” user role to teachers or team leaders, allowing them to submit events without the ability to publish or approve.
  • Admin Review: Admins can review and approve events before they are published, maintaining quality control and preventing accidental changes.
