COMPASS

Compass is a service for families that is the primary means of communication between the school and home. Parents are able to login to Compass via the ’Community Portal’ button located on the school website (www.mgc.vic.edu.au). Students can also access Compass via the school intranet page.

Students simply use their MGC login to access Compass. You will be able to:

1. View your schedule for the day and for the year ahead.
2. View your attendance.
3. Access Learning Tasks
4. Access Learning Task feedback
5. Access the newsfeed that is tailored to your year level.
6. Access forms and newsletters meant for your year level.
7. Email other students and staff.

Your parents are also given a unique login to Compass so they can:

2. View Learning Task feedback and results
3. View News Feeds – the school will post news to parents to remind them about events and activities at the school.
4. View and manage your attendance
5. Download your Semester Reports as an electronic PDF file.
6. View the Newsletter – the newsletter will be published on Compass and parents will be able to login to view it each fortnight.

Students are NOT PERMITTED to use their parent/guardians Compass login/password under any circumstances as this is considered fraudulent. 

The parents of international students under welfare options 3 and 4 will receive Compass login details, but will not be required to approve the student's absences.  These will be monitored by the International Student Coordinator in order to maintain the student's visa conditions.
