Part of Student Manager — send accurate, permission-based email communications straight from your student database.

Email Wizard is a feature within Student Manager, iSAMS’s core module for managing student records. It gives staff an efficient way to send email communications to parents, students and other contacts, using the same data already held on file — no separate mailing list to build or keep in sync.

Because it draws on live correspondence permissions and family records, every message goes to the right guardian automatically, whether it’s a one-off update, a routine notice, or a full email newsletter.

Key Features

Smart correspondence filtering

Contacts are selected automatically based on real-time permissions stored in Student Manager. Send targeted updates to specific forms, year groups or custom cohorts in seconds

Intelligent mail merging

Handles complex family structures without extra setup. General news goes out as a single family email; messages with personalised fields, such as grades or individual forms, are automatically split into per-child updates.

Email newsletters

Build and send newsletters to any group or cohort using Student Manager’s Group Operations, the same underlying tool that powers Email Wizard’s targeted messaging.

Complete communication history

Every email sent through Email Wizard is logged automatically to the student’s central record, giving staff a full, two-way communication history for every family.

Pairs with SMS Gateway

For urgent or time-sensitive updates, combine Email Wizard with SMS Gateway to reach families by text using the same student data – authorisation controls, delivery tracking and detailed logging included.
