Class and school parents group rules

Rules for a class group of parents, or of parents and teachers. They keep the group useful and stop it from becoming a complaint box.

*Group rules* 1. This group is only for class information: homework, dates, circulars and events. 2. Messages between 7 am and 8 pm, except for a real emergency. 3. No "thank you", "noted" or thumbs-up replies to announcements. A reaction is enough. 4. Questions about your own child go to the teacher directly, not to the group. 5. No comparisons of marks, and no discussion about any child or teacher. 6. No advertisements, forwards, greetings or fund collections without the admin's approval. 7. Do not share children's photos from this group anywhere else. 8. If you miss information, scroll up first, then ask one parent privately. 9. Complaints go to the school office. This group cannot solve them.

How to use these rules

  1. Copy the rules and change any line that does not fit your group.
  2. Post them in the group and pin the message, so that it stays at the top.
  3. Put the one-line version in the group description. Ready lines are on the descriptions page.
  4. When a rule is broken, remind the person privately first. See how to be a good admin.
