Parent Access – Features

Parent and guardian can log-in to the iSchool ASP Portal, if he / she is being issued an ID and password by the school. After logging in, the parent will have access to students’ profile only for children and students under his custodian. Apart from the student profile, he’ll have full news and announcement information in the school. He will also be able to send and receive messages to and from the teachers if the school chooses to open up this access.

Parents can access their child’s academic profile, exam and grading performance, attendance, disciplinary action or co-curriculum activities from the parent’s desktop.

My Children
Parents are able to see their childrens’s info in school, including gradings & examination results, discipline records, Attendance and Co-curriculum activities (including Assessment results). Parents also have the option to view all childrens studying in different schools in one household account, by combining accounts.

School Info
The school have the option to configure School News, Announcements, and Events through RSS feed from their Official School web site, so that Parent can view on their Desktop on ASP Portal. We have also extended a school location through Google Maps from our iSchool Directory. The School can create their own Youtube Channel account where they can upload their school activities in Video, and link to the ASP Portal, similarily with Photo Albums services from Flickr.

My News
We made latest news from the major local newspaper available on the ASP Portal through RSS feed, so that the Parent can have a summarised view of the latest happenings in the country, in different languages. Users can also configure their own RSS feed, for content of their choice. If the school also sign up for the iSchool WP Portal product, indivudual teacher’s blogs will also be displayed via RSS feeds.

School Calendars
If the School activate their embedded Google Calendar functions, parent will be able to monitor various school events and calendar, optional examination schedules and co-curriculum activities are also available if the schools choose to publish them via Google calendar. This is part of our overall iSchool Suite of products’ integration with Google Apps for Education.

Multi Lingual
The ASP Portal is multi-lingual, with avilable interface in Bahasa Malaysia, English and Chinese, so that parents of all background would be able to log-in and choose the language interface of their choice, and this is a great help for parents who may not be fluent in languages that they are not familiar with. With the multi-ligual interface, we can achieve a better communication between schools and parents.
