Request: Student ID cards

Please ensure your child has their ID card

Northcote High School issues all students with a Student Identity card at the beginning of each year. This card contains a magnetic reader strip and student details, including a photo. We expect all students to carry their Student ID cards on them at all time. This is not only for their safety and identification but for staff and student convenience at school to accomplish daily activities such as copying in the library, signing in late, borrowing sports equipment and more.

It has come to our attention that there are a large number of students who have misplaced or are not bringing to school their Student ID cards. We ask for your support to order a new card if your child is without one.

Below is a step by step process to rectify lost Student ID cards:

1. Log into your Compass parent profile and select the tools tab. (The cogwheel in the right top hand corner next to your name)
2. Select the “My Compass Identity Card” option.
3. Once loaded, the page will have an option with a green plus symbol and a link that says “Click here to order a new Compass identity Card”
4. You will be bought to a screen prompting you to enter your payment details. Once you have filled out the details, select the “Order Now” button at the bottom of the screen
5. The cards will be sent to the school within the next few weeks. Once arrived, it will be put into the child’s Tutorial teacher’s pigeonhole to be handed to the student next Tutorial class.

The General Office can order Student ID cards for your child if you are unable to access Compass, however it may take longer to process.

Thank you for your ongoing support of Northcote High School and our processes.
