To send a Secure Message, simply select 'Messages' from the navigation bar displayed at the top of all pages in Looked After Call.
To send a 'new' message select 'New' from the right-hand pane. The 'To' field allows you to select from all users configured in Looked After Call. Start typing their name and a list of matching users will be displayed allowing you to select the one you need. You can select multiple users. You can also 'CC' users, in the same manner, using the 'CC' field. This is useful for users to whom you wish to send a notification, but are not directly involved in the discussion. The 'Subject' field allows you to enter a meaningful reference to the conversation at hand. You can optionally select the pupils to which the message relates. This should be the default when sending messages so that a complete history of communication regarding a pupil is maintained on the pupil record in Looked After Call.
Enter your message in the 'Body goes here... box' and optionally attach any files that may be of relevance.
