How does it work?

We become your digital mailroom team, so you can focus on the operational excellence behind quality teaching and learning.

Firstly, choose an address to send your correspondence and you’ll then benefit from reliable, compliant, time-sensitive digital mail management. This can be a useful correspondence address for centralised education management.

You can use UK Postbox for any day-to-day or special mailing during the academic year. Send and receive physical student and parent letters, manage uniform stock and send out prospectuses and certificates. Complete general notification letters without leaving your desk. All incoming and outgoing mail and correspondence can be managed digitally, linked to existing management information systems and automatically sorted.

Online mail management for
Education Institutions

Every account has access to our platform and online mail management features. We provide everything needed to manage mail across your operations from anywhere at any time.

View letter and parcel scans

View envelope scans or parcel photos when you receive mail. When requested, we’ll open your mail and scan the contents for you to read online.

Forward mail items

If you receive parcels or need to keep a physical letter, we can forward your post to any other location or recipient. Just let us know via your account and we’ll handle the postage for you.

Send letters and documents from anywhere

Bulk upload letters, documents, informational mailshots and other printed materials from your account. We’ll print and post them on your behalf, and can send them in custom envelopes.

Tag mail and organise into folders

Organise your digital scans by adding tags and moving them into folders. Enables integrations with electronic student records (EPR) and document management systems (DMS).

Integrate with your existing systems

Use our API or supported integrations such as Google Drive, OneDrive, Xero (via Make) and Quickbooks (via Zapier) to automatically share your scans with your existing school management software.

Correspondence addresses for education institutions

Our digital solutions can transform the way you handle student and parent correspondence, reducing administrative burden and postage costs. Here are some examples of what you can do:

Mail delivery address

Use as the delivery address for all inbound letters and parcels sent to your education institution. We’ll receive mail on your behalf at our secure, compliant facility.

Office correspondence address

Use as the official post-handling address all letter correspondence and parcels should be sent to when your organisation is contacted.

Centralised mail

If you have multiple locations or campuses, use your virtual address as the single inbound mail location to centralise your mail and make it easier to manage across your group.

Department addresses

Use a correspondence address for specific school and campus locations so that you can manage your mail independently. Create multiple accounts and addresses for each department as required.

Remote address

Your correspondence address can be used and accessed from anywhere, making it a viable option for remote working staff who receive regular mail communications.

Mail sorting facility

Use your correspondence address as a mail sorting facility prior to distributing post to staff and departments within your organisation.
