Parent Portal

Parent portal

One login, every linked child. A guardian sees their ward's results, attendance, and fees under My children, and tracks any admission application under My applications — the same portal whether they signed up themselves at /apply or were invited from an existing student's profile.

Screens below are from a real guardian account in a demo school, linked to one real student.

Who can do what

There's no separate role check behind any of this — every page here scopes by ownership: is this user actually a guardian of the student they're asking about. That's deliberate. A teacher applying for their own child gets exactly the same portal a parent does, and My applications is open to anyone with a school, not gated to the parent role at all — because applying for your own ward, and needing somewhere to track it afterward, isn't only something parents do.

My children

My children is one card per linked student: status, class and arm, and a term-by-term results table once any have been computed.

The My children page, one card for a student showing Active status, class/arm, and a results table with Term First / Average 72.00 / Position 1 of 14
My children — one card per linked student, results included once computed.

Multi-child support is exactly this: more cards, same page, one login — a guardian with three children at the school never signs into three different places.

Attendance & fees, per child

My children's attendance and My children's fees are the same one-card-per-child shape, each narrowed to its own thing — a running attendance snapshot for the current term, or a plain billed/paid/outstanding line.

My children's attendance: one card reading 'This term: 4 present, 3 absent, 0 late, 0 excused'
My children's attendance — a term snapshot, one card per child.
My children's fees: one card reading 'Billed ₦90,000 · Paid ₦60,000 · Outstanding ₦30,000', outstanding bolded
My children's fees — billed, paid, and outstanding, outstanding always the one that stands out.

Clicking through either card opens the full picture — a complete attendance history, or the same term-grouped ledger view a Burser sees, just scoped to this one child instead of the whole school.

My applications

My applications is where an in-progress application lives — an Apply now prompt whenever a window is open, every application the guardian has submitted with whatever action its status allows (paying a fee, accepting a place, downloading a letter, editing while it's still pending), and the school's downloadable admission documents alongside it.

The My applications page: an 'Admissions are open — 2026/2027 session' banner with an Apply now button, a 'No applications yet' empty state, and a Downloadable documents card with Financial Commitment Agreement and Fee Structure links
My applications — the applicant's own view of the admissions lifecycle documented in full in Admissions.
