No matter the size of your MAT, the profile of your schools, or your geographical spread, it’s important that everyone’s on the same page when it comes to your values, vision and important messages.
You might be thinking that’s easier said than done. While that may well be true if you’re relying solely on communication methods like email and paper notice boards, digital signage is a great way to reinforce your messages and keep them front of mind.
TrilbyTV makes visible communication even easier with Smart Content. More than just templates, these are intelligent, configurable and purpose-built signage content items blended with your data. They’re designed to save you time while making sure your content is tailored to your setting. Adding to our popular collection – of Birthdays, House Points and more – we’ve introduced four new Smart Content items made for MATs, helping you to communicate clearly across your trust quickly and easily.
Trust Values
Bring your school or Multi-Academy Trust values to life on screen. Add as many as you like, then let the display rotate them at random throughout the day. Perfect for receptions, corridors and staff areas, it keeps your ethos visible, reinforces culture, and helps everyone remember what you stand for.
Trust Vision
Share your school or Multi-Academy Trust vision in one clear, powerful statement. This single piece of content displays the full vision in one place, making it easy for pupils, staff, parents and visitors to understand what you are working towards. Ideal for receptions and main corridors, it keeps your direction front and centre every day.
Leadership Message
Update staff and students with the latest weekly news from the head teacher, SLT or Trust CEO. To make sure your content is on screen for the right amount of time, the timing of the content will auto-adjust based on word count.
Training Session
Keep staff and students updated with upcoming training, clubs, workshops or events. Make it easy to sign up by adding in a registration link and we’ll make a nice QR code so folks can easily sign up.
Sharing Smart Content across your trust
With your content at the ready, it’s simple to share it into your schools. TrilbyTV’s Shared Playlists mean staff at trust level can create a playlist from the central location and then share it with one, several or all of the schools in the trust.
School staff then decide when and where the content should be shown, in the same way they would manage the content they create in school. This means that trusts can support schools with content while the schools maintain their autonomy. When playlists need to be updated, the trust can do so from their own account and changes will be automatically reflected on school screens. No more sending content via email or managing screens individually.
If you’re a TrilbyTV user, you can find our new Smart Content in the Add menu from the Home feed. Select the content you’d like to use, click Add to feed and update your options to personalise for your needs. If you need help, you can get in touch with our team who are always happy to support you.
