What Parents Are Saying

"One of the best AI use cases I've seen. It solves a real problem."

Chris, inner east

"Absolutely love how it cuts through the noise and the auto calendar sync means I get back SO MUCH time."

Andrew, inner east

"This is frickin' awesome! What an amazing tool to build. I love it."

Cath, inner north

"A fantastic concept, hopefully summarising the newsletter means the important information gets out there to families."

School Principal, inner north

You know the routine.

A 12-page PDF lands in your inbox on a Thursday afternoon. You skim it. You miss the athletics carnival date. You find out about the excursion form the morning it's due.

Your kid gets in the car. You ask "How was school?" They say "Fine."

You know there's good stuff in that newsletter. You just don't have 20 minutes to find it.

How It Works

1 Pick your school

Search for your school. Takes about 60 seconds.

2 We read the newsletter

Every time your school publishes, we summarise it automatically.

3 You get what matters

A short, personalised digest lands in your inbox. Filtered to your child's year level. Every key date listed and ready to action.

Set it up once. It runs forever.

The Dinner Table Cheat Sheet

This is the feature parents don't expect to love. Every digest includes 3-4 specific questions pulled from that week's newsletter. Not generic. Actual questions based on actual things that happened.

Prep "Did you get to pat the animals at the farm visit?"
Year 3 "What colour house are you in for the Athletics carnival on Friday?"
Year 5 "Did you see the Year 5 Hexagon artwork in the atrium?"

You walk in knowing something. Your kid notices. The conversation actually goes somewhere.

Included with Premium - $12/term or $35/year

Your Family Speaks More Than One Language

Your mum helps with school pickup but doesn't read the newsletter. Your partner's parents want to know what's happening but the 12-page PDF is in English.

School Scoop sends the digest in the language your family actually speaks.

Available in: Chinese (Simplified) · Vietnamese · Greek · Italian · English

One parent told us the translation feature was the moment it clicked for her. She could finally share school news with her mother, who helps with pickup and had never been able to read the newsletter.

Don't See Your School?

Any parent can add any school. Paste a link to any recent newsletter, we set up automatic monitoring, and every future newsletter is summarised and delivered. You just made life easier for your whole school community.

Free. No catch. Summaries, key dates, WhatsApp snippets. No credit card. No spam.

For School Leaders & Principals

School Scoop helps your newsletter actually reach families. You spend time writing useful information. We make sure parents read it. There is nothing for your school to set up, no admin work, and no changes to your publishing process.

Schools using School Scoop report fewer front-office questions about dates and events, because parents already have the information in their calendar.

That principal heard about School Scoop from a parent in his community before we ever contacted the school.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this actually free?

Yes. Year-level filtered summaries, all key dates, and WhatsApp sharing are free forever. No credit card required. Premium ($12/term or $35/year) adds ⚡ Need to Know action lists, Smart Calendar, dinner table questions, keyword alerts, multilingual digests, and multi-school support. Cancel anytime -- your free features stay even if you cancel. Early Access subscribers get everything free.

How do you get the newsletter?

We monitor your school's newsletter automatically. You never need to forward anything. When a new edition is published, we detect it, summarise it, and send your personalised digest.

Is this affiliated with my school?

No. School Scoop is an independent service built by parents. We are not endorsed by, sponsored by, or formally connected to any school. We simply read publicly available newsletters and summarise them for families.

What if I can't find my school?

Search for any Australian school by name. We scan thousands of schools and automatically detect their newsletter. If yours isn't set up yet, we'll find and add it when you search. No links or manual steps needed.

What about the calendar?

Every digest includes key dates pulled from the newsletter. Free digests include every key date in a clear list. Premium subscribers get Smart Calendar -- dates pushed to your phone calendar automatically, plus predicted events from your school's history. Sports days, excursions, curriculum days, and more appear right alongside your own events. Our system also learns your school's patterns from past years, so even dates the newsletter forgets still show up.

Will the AI get things wrong?

Occasionally, yes. AI summarisation is very good but not perfect. Every digest includes a direct link to the full original newsletter so you can always check. We also run quality checks on every summary before it goes out.

Can my family members see this too?

Yes. Forward the digest to anyone, or share key points in your class WhatsApp group. Family members who want their own personalised digest can sign up with their own email.
