Emails to schools from the DCSF
A regular email to schools, addressed to the headteacher, is sent by the DCSF to all schools in England. Published every fortnight, it contains the most important information for schools.
The latest information and guidance is gathered together in one place, making it easy to see information that has recently become available. You can view the content of these and previous emails on the Email to schools area of TeacherNet.
The emails to schools are sent automatically to headteachers in England. However, you might also like to receive a fortnightly email alert via your own email address.
Below are details of how you can subscribe to the fortnightly email to schools, what the email contains and how to update your school's details.
