Annual wheel reminders never miss a deadline
Teachers and heads get automatic alerts 10 and 1 days before every statutory deadline — in-app, by email or both. Per-user toggle. OECD TALIS (2020) shows predictable administration is one of the strongest predictors of teacher wellbeing; timely reminders without spam are not a luxury.
10- and 1-day warnings
The long warning gives time to prepare — the 1-day alert is the final safety net.
Per-user toggle
Each teacher and head decides for themselves whether to receive reminders.
In-app and email
Alerts appear in the bell icon and can also be emailed — choose your channel.
Role-relevant
Teachers only get reminders about deadlines that affect them — not the whole school's returns.
Synced with the wheel
Reminders share the same data source as the timeline — including the auto-synced statutory deadlines, not just manual ones.
No spam
Each deadline produces at most two notifications — one per milestone, not daily.
In the classroom
Year 11 grades
Class teacher gets 10 days' notice before submission — time to chase outstanding marks.
Spring wellbeing survey
Pastoral lead gets one notification 10 days ahead and one final reminder the day before.
Quarterly absence return
The office is reminded to close the quarter — without the head having to chase.
For teachers and for school leadership
You're not spammed. Each deadline produces at most two notifications (10 days and 1 day before), and you can toggle them off individually if a category isn't relevant. Notifications deep-link to the page that solves them, so reminders become concrete actions rather than another email to read.
- Max 2 notifications per deadline — no daily spam
- Toggle categories off individually (consents, grades, attendance)
- Deep link to the page that solves it — not just 'remember the deadline'
Leadership doesn't just see their own reminders, but an escalation dashboard: which deadlines have nobody acted on after the 1-day reminder? That reduces manual chasing — in line with Hattie's (2023) instructional-leadership principle of data-driven conversations.
- Escalation dashboard on 1-day reminders without action
- Authority-level severe-event triggers (e.g. missed STIL push)
- Daily digest for leadership — no missed deadlines
