The NetPals mailing list solutions offer free list hosting services and free LISTSERV® Lite software licenses to primary and secondary schools.

Since the 1970s, mailing lists have been an effective means of communication for sustaining dynamic group discussions in higher education institutions. Colleges and universities currently use email discussion lists as an integral part of learning and research. Participants from all over the world benefit from this free flow of knowledge and information. NetPals now brings these same advantages to the primary and secondary school community around the world.

Through NetPals, schools can easily distribute announcements and other information to their staff, teachers and parents. Teachers may exchange opinions and share resources with other teachers. Students may hold discussions about specific education related topics. The possibilities are endless.
