Allow users/staff to edit email and letter notifications before sending them to parents or carers

Pre-populated email or letter templates to keep parents or carers up to date are quick and easy for staff to send, however, in some instances, a personal touch to the communication will help give the parent or carer more detailed information.

How do I edit a notification before sending it?

Important: If you cannot edit the notification before sending then you will need to ask the Medical Tracker Administrator of your school to update the permissions of the team your user belongs to. Please click here to find out how to enable this permission.


Once you record an incident you will have the ability to add a personal message for the parent and carer. You will be able to type directly into the template as you can see in the image below. 

Tip: This will only affect the specific notification being sent to that parent or carer. If you want to update the template please click here.

3. Select 'Team actions -> 'Edit team'


4. Within the 'Team' permission, enable 'Edit notification before sending.'
