Company
With endless possibilities, we help you to dedicate more time to your students.
Reach has redefined the global landscape in Student Life Management since our beginning in 2012, providing solutions that are secure, flexible, and designed to work with schools, for schools.
We deliver a complete solution that lives in the cloud but is rooted in real expertise. Reach prides itself on having a pulse on what schools need, not only through engaging conversations with schools globally, but also through the first-hand experience that our Reach team can draw upon from their own careers in schools as administrators, teaching faculty, and dorm parents.
Reach History
The Reach story began one Thursday afternoon in October 2012 on a rugby field at Guildford Grammar School in Perth, Western Australia. Steve Montgomery went to assist Michael Holland to coach the Guildford Grammar 1st XV rugby team. Michael was the Head of Boarding for Guildford Grammar at the time.
Michael’s phone kept buzzing every few minutes with boarders trying to organize or confirm their upcoming weekend leave. It was clear that Michael, and likely many other Heads of Boarding across Australia, could benefit from a system that could change the way that schools could fulfill their Duty of Care.
Meanwhile, in Canada, Brian Murray was a Dean of Students and was in search of a system that would help bring efficiency to a very busy boarding program, from taking attendance at meals to processing thousands of requests for leave. Discovering that there were few options for Student Life Management Systems in the eco-system, Brian connected with Touchline Connect’s team and the work that they had started at Guildford Grammar continued as an international collaboration.
The result is what you see today – a suite of comprehensive, multi-featured, and advanced tools, which automate school and residential activities, improve communication, and provide measurable gains for efficiency and risk mitigation.
