Why secondary school sends so much.
Edulink One carries everything a secondary school tracks about your child, and much of it is set to email you as it happens.
Letters and newsletters
Whole-school and year-group letters, often with the detail in an attachment.
Exams and evenings
Mock timetables, options evenings and parents' evenings. The ones that actually go on a calendar.
More than one child
A child in Year 7 and one in Year 10 means two very different streams.
What parents try
The usual fixes trade one problem for another.
Check the app instead
Everything is there, but you still dig for the dates among points and homework notes.
Ignore the routine ones
Sensible, until the options evening is filed with the achievement points.
Let your teenager tell you
They will mention the mock exams. Probably the night before.
How it works
You forward it. Sense keeps the dates.
Step 01
Forward the email
Verify your email address in Sense once, then forward Edulink One emails to share@getsense.ai. Digests and attachments included.
Step 02
Sense reads every one
It pulls out the dates, times, what to bring, and anything to sign or pay. Emails with nothing to schedule are left alone.
Step 03
It is on the calendar
Events land on your family calendar, with reminders for deadlines, so everyone sees the same plan.
Or let all of it flow in on its own
Premium lets you set up a Gmail or Outlook filter that sends every one of these emails to your personal Sense address the moment it arrives. Sense reads each one, adds what has a date, and ignores the rest. How to set up auto-forwarding.
What it costs
The free plan covers 10 emails a month for the whole family, which is enough to forward the ones that matter. A busy school on auto-forward will need Premium, which is unlimited. See pricing.

Forwarding an Edulink One email
Forward the email with any attachments. Sense reads the message and attached PDFs or images, adds the dated items, and leaves achievement points and routine updates out of your calendar.
FAQ
Common questions.
How do I get Edulink One dates onto my calendar?
Forward the Edulink One email to Sense. It adds each date, like an options evening or a mock exam week, to your family calendar.
Will achievement points and behaviour updates clutter my calendar?
No. Updates without anything to schedule are not turned into events.
Does it read an attached exam timetable?
Yes. Sense reads PDF and image attachments, so the dates in an attached timetable are picked up.
Does it work with Google or Outlook calendars?
Sense has its own family calendar and connects to Google Calendar. You can also subscribe to it from Outlook or Apple Calendar.
