Customisable online portal for parents

The portal shows a student’s timetable, attendance information including school and lesson registration, future absences and off games, discipline details such as detentions, and reward and conduct records. The portal also offers access permission forms, exam entries, school reports, and more. You can customise the portal according to your school’s style and content, and every action is logged. You can also access valuable information such as how many visitors the site has. Once your platform is set up, maintenance is minimal too.

“I’m also a parent here, so I get to experience the Parent Portal and iParent App from both perspectives, and I love how slick and easy they are to use – so much so that we’re planning on using these channels to communicate with parents even more in the future.”

Ben Whitaker - Head of IT Services, Bury Grammar School

“Great for simple communication with parents, no matter where they are in the world. A parent in the African bush was able to read his daughter’s first online school report.”

Sarah Williamson - Director of Information Systems, Sevenoaks School

“iSAMS is the most intuitive, flexible and user-friendly school MIS that I have come across in my career so far. They are progressive and up-to-date with the latest technologies and recently with the release of their apps, it has positively transformed the way we manage various in-house processes and improve our parental engagement & communication.”

Benoy Ittyavirah - Director of IT, Staff Training & Development, Wycliffe College
