New Parent App

Due to ongoing issues with the FlexiSchools App, a decision has been made to use a new app called nForma For Parents.

 

The app is available on Android and IOS (Apple) devices, and the icon looks like this... 

 

 

 

This app will be used to send parents notifications and to collect parent consent on online permission forms.

 

Parents can also view their children's academic reports on the app and enter future absences. 

 

When you launch the app, it will ask you for your email address and password. These will be the same login details you used to access your child's report on the nForma web portal earlier in the year. 

 

If you cannot remember your login details (or are new to the school), click "Forgot Password?" and follow the steps to reset your password. Please note that you will need to use the email address you have on the school's database. 

 

Thanks to Pietro Sciotto for assisting me with testing the app and providing the screenshots. 

 

If you have any questions or problems, please do not hesitate to contact me.
