Jain Heritage School to have its own mobile app

JHS Mobile App Schkola

Jain Heritage School has always believed in Innovation and Creativity. This approach has led to create an outstanding service for Parents using the Power of IT. The Mobile App- Schkola is an attempt to bridge a communication gap between Parents and School.

Objective :

The availability of JHS school app will let the school increase its availability and accessibility to parents, which is very important. The app will take the parents quickly to the information he needs about the school. Most people now carry a smartphone with them, so the app will allow content and information to be at hand at any point in time. Previously, documents that were stored on the home computer could only be viewed from one location (which could be inconvenient). Now with the advent of school phone apps, the same information can be accessed on a bus, as parents walk their children to school or from any other location.

This provides a much better user experience and there is more chance of the content being read. This is a great way for schools to encourage interaction and get the wider community involved.
