Discussion Forums

Edukit's threaded discussion forums provide a structured approach for school and class communications.

Create a forum for the english department's new field trip, another to discuss all issues related to the school, etc.

Administrators have full control over who can read, post and moderate messages in an unlimited number of forums - which can be open to all, or targeted by group. Pupils can report any abuse immediately to the administrator.
