Trial Communication System

Walton High School are trialling an electronic communication system to parents.

This may mean you receiving texts or emails regarding your child’s absence and school events. These messages will come from either of the following numbers:

Absence Alert Text Number: 07624 816818

If you receive a text regarding your child’s absence from school, you do not need to phone the absence line in addition to replying by text, however it is essential that you do contact us.

Group Messaging Text Number: 07624 816817

This will be a number used by school to inform/remind you of events such as parents’ evenings.

Can we advise you to enter both of these numbers into your mobile phone under “Walton High School” so that you know they are legitimate calls.
