What you will learn

  • What the link is
  • How to check yours
  • How to ask for a change

The Guardians screen shows who may see a student's attendance, grades and schedule on their behalf. Your own link is listed there.

Being a parent is not enough on its own

The school has to create a link between your account and the student's. Without it you would see nothing at all. This is deliberate: it stops anybody seeing a young person's results without permission.
