MyChildAtSchool (MCAS)

MyChildAtSchool [MCAS] is a portal enabling parent/carers to view their child's academic performance in real time via a web browser or app. This facility allows exclusive access to the child's attendance, assessment and behaviour whenever the parent/carer wishes. As well as student progress data, the portal also provides general useful information about school such as the Academic Calendar and Announcements.

In summary, MyChildAtSchool provides:

• Access to real-time attendance, assessment and behaviour data
• An insight to parents on their child’s schoolwork, for example, Home Learning
• Communication facilities to contact the school office and teachers
• Instant access to published reports and letters

Class Charts

We have introduced a new system in school called ClassCharts which will, for the most part, replace My Child At School (MCAS).

ClassCharts is an online platform for schools that enable us to celebrate students’ success, manage behaviour, set homework tasks and communicate more effectively with parents and carers. MCAS will continue to be available to parents and carers and will continue to have reports and examination timetables available to parents and carers however ClassCharts will be the place to go to see details of any positive points (ViPos) and any negative points or sanctions that your child may receive. You will also be able to view your child attendance and report any absences (including medical appointments) through ClassCharts. All of your child’s homework will be set through ClassCharts and therefore you will be able to track the tasks they have been set and completed and seen by their class teacher.

A parent guide is available below which will guide you though how to log into ClassCharts and how some of the functions work from a parent perspective. The guide also encloses information on how to set up a dual account for parents and carers who have multiple children attending Garibaldi. We recommend you download the app to your mobile phone however you can also access ClassCharts through an online browser.

Student Consent Form

The Nova Education Trust has deemed that students from Year 9 upwards can give their own consent. However this can only be the case where students fully understand their rights; if this is not the case a hard copy of the consent form will be given to parents/carers for completion.

Cashless Catering

Garibaldi uses the SCOPAY account system to top up and purchase food and drinks in school. Once your child enrols in school they will be allocated a n online link code and this will allow you to set up an online account. By logging on to your account you can top up the amount on your child's account and also view their purchases.
