Parent · Head teacher / Administrator
The parent portal
What a parent sees, how they are invited, and withholding results over unpaid fees.
What a parent sees
A parent signs in and sees their own children, and nobody else's. For
each child:
- Results for the current term, and past terms
- Both teacher comments
- The report card, exactly as printed
- Attendance, if your school shows it
- Fees balance and every receipt
One login per family. A parent with three children in the school signs
in once and sees all three.
Getting parents in
Admin → Invite parents. GradeFlex emails a link; the parent sets
their own password and is linked to their child automatically. You never
handle their password.
A parent with no email cannot use the portal — but they still get the text
messages, which is what most Ugandan parents actually rely on.
Withholding results over fees
A school can hide results from a parent whose balance is unpaid. It applies
everywhere a parent could reach results, including a report-card link they
kept from last term.
It only affects parents. Teachers and administrators keep full access.
And it hides results, not the fee balance — a parent can always see what is
owed, which is the point of withholding in the first place.
What a parent can never do
- See another family's child, at all, anywhere
- Change a mark, a comment or a fee record
- Email a report card out
