ACT public schools have begun a phased roll out of a new secure online platform to share student information between parents and carers and their student’s teachers.
Parent Portal can be accessed on a mobile phone, tablet or computer and will allow parents to:
- notify the school when their child is sick or to explain an absence
- book parent-teacher interviews
- receive academic reports
- receive the school newsletter
- receive messages from their child’s teachers
- make payments
- access the school calendar and their child’s student timetable
- Update their contact details.
The roll out of the new system to 91 public schools from preschool to year 12 will occur over terms 1 and 2 this year. Each school will notify parents and carers via their normal communication methods when they are ready to begin Parent Portal at their school. Parents and carers will be required to have an ACT Digital Account before they can access Parent Portal.
