For schools and education
Outages happen on exam morning. The flood of questions does not have to.
When sign-in, enrolment or a learning platform slows down, everyone asks at once. One clear status page on your own address shows what is affected, what you are doing, and when the next update comes.
Start on the Free plan, no card needed. Innovator is free while a verified status page for your main domain is live on your own address, like status.yourdomain.com.
How it breaks
School systems break at the busiest moments.
One page answers the question everyone is asking.
incident · Student portal · failing to load · next update 09:30
Hundreds of people, one question
Post one plain update instead of answering the same email all morning. Everyone sees what is affected and when you will post next.

It is the vendor, not your network
Link a monitor to a vendor’s official status page and get an email when it posts an incident, then tell staff the problem is with the vendor.

Hear which part broke
Report buttons you set up, like “Student login”, “Course videos” or “Grades”. When reports jump, the studio home tells you.

Questions
Can we run the page on our own address?
Yes, on every plan, for example status.yourschool.edu.
Do people need an account to see the page?
No. The page is public. Only subscribing asks for an email address or a Google or GitHub sign-in.
Is planned work emailed?
No. Planned work shows on the page only. Incidents are emailed to subscribers.
What if we only want to post updates by hand?
Use Manual mode: the page shows working until you post an incident. Free status pages are always Manual.
