Ways you can manage parents and guardians with DreamClass
Easily create Parent and Guardian Profiles, link them with your students and grant access rights for them to login to their personalized accounts:
- Use our ready-made cards to store essential guardians’ personal and contact information you may need. Cards — just like all related student information — are accessible from wherever both administrators and teachers in charge are.
- Store any additional information you may need, such as “best time to call”, “mail preference”, “work telephone number” etc. that will make the interaction with guardians smoother. Easily create your own custom fields in your guardians’ information cards.
- Let both administrators and teachers be in the know of who they’ll be interacting with, specifying the relationship type between the guardian and the student. You simply select the suitable option choosing among Father, Mother, Grandfather, Grandmother, Stepfather, Stepmother, Uncle, Aunt or Other.
- Assign multiple guardians. Associate a student with more than one guardian (if needed) creating the respective profiles and specifying the relation between them.
- Easily grant access rights to a student’s guardian and share their credentials to get them on board without delay. You may give access rights to all guardians linked with a student profile, to login from their portal.
- Manage guardians’ access rights in bulk, enabling/disabling guardians whenever you may need to do so.
- Have parents, guardians and students grouped in families.
