Call Parents allows users to upload data via csv files. This feature can still be used even if your Call Parents is linked to an MIS as you may wish to upload Governors or other non-teaching staff that are not in your MIS. NOTE: you need to be the Call Parents administrator to upload data. If you cannot see the Admin tab at the top of the screen please contact your Call Parents administrator to give you access to this or ask them to do the upload for you.
A sample csv file can be found here. The minimum fields required are student first name, last name, a contact (e.g. Mom or Dad) first name, last name and a mobile number or email address. However, you can include extra information if you wish such as classes, year groups etc.
Step-by-step guide
