Common questions
What should a teacher's email signature include?
Full name, role (Teacher, Grade Lead, Head of Department), the school name, subject or grade level, room number, and the best hours to reach you. Keep it short so it doesn't overwhelm parent replies.
Should teachers add a photo?
Optional. A small headshot helps parents put a face to the name at back-to-school time; many teachers prefer a simple monogram instead to keep the signature small on mobile.
Can I add a schedule link?
Yes — many teachers link a booking page for parent-teacher meetings. Wren has a one-click call-to-action field for this.
