School office: every teacher hears it once

The setup

The school secretary fans office@ out to year leads and specialists: y1@, y2@, y3@, y4@, y5@, y6@ plus music@, pe@ and sendco@.

How the mail flows

1. A parent emails about a pickup change at 2:10pm.
2. The class teacher and the office both hold the identical message minutes later.
3. Admin notices go the same way: one message in, nine staff inboxes updated.
4. office@ remains the single archive governors can audit.

Why Sinka fits here

• No mailing lists to update every September when staff changes.
• Supply teachers get a real inbox copy the day they start, revoked the day they leave.
• Read/unread is personal: the office's read state never hides mail from teachers.

Watch out for

• Safeguarding mail needs named humans, not copies — keep your DSL procedure on top of the inbox flow.
• Parents replying to all nine copies would be chaos; replies go to the teacher who answers, which is the point.
