Welcome to this month's My School Portal update. As schools prepare for exam results season and the start of a new academic year, we've brought together some important guidance, customer insights, and key reminders to help you get the most from your portal. From sharing exam results with students and parents to planning for MIS changes over the summer, explore the latest updates and best practice recommendations below.
Exam Results on My School Portal
Exam season is here, and My School Portal provides multiple ways to securely share results with students and parents. Whether you're using the dedicated Tabbed Exams page with Exam Report Cycles or publishing results through Student Documents, you can choose the approach that best fits your school's processes.
If you're preparing to release results, explore our help resources and webinars for step-by-step guidance and best practice recommendations.
Planning an MIS Change This Summer?
If your school is changing MIS this summer, it's important to let us know as soon as possible.
My School Portal integrates directly with your MIS to display key information such as attendance, behaviour, timetable data, reports and exam results. If your MIS changes, your existing integration will stop working and action may be required to reconnect your portal to the new system.
To help ensure a smooth transition and avoid any interruption to data syncing, please contact our Support team before your MIS migration takes place. We'll guide you through the process and help get everything connected and working as quickly as possible.
Changing MIS? Please contact Support to let us know.
Customer Spotlight: From Exam Results to a School-Wide Hub
When Bethany School first implemented My School Portal, their initial goal was simple: provide students and parents with easy access to exam results. Since then, the school has expanded its use of the platform to support parent communications, consent forms, school reports, and integrations with other key systems.
For Database Manager Katja Thornton, My School Portal has become the school's central source of information, helping families find what they need quickly while reducing administrative workload for staff.
"The value lies in having one tool that handles so many tasks efficiently. For administrators, parents, and students, it simplifies life and ensures seamless communication and organisation."
Bethany School's journey demonstrates how a solution adopted for exam results can evolve into a powerful platform for communication and engagement across the whole school community.
