Why is student date of birth a required field for parents to be able to use Pupil Progress App?

  • In order to verify parent accounts, Pupil Progress requires students or parents to enter the student's date of birth.

  • This is the last of a series of security measures which verify that the right student is linked to the correct app account.


How do I add a date of birth?

  • If you are synced via Groupcall, this field will be auto-populated, so if this is blank for a student you will need to update it on your MIS.

  • If students are manually managed, click on the 3-dot button and select Edit Student. Add a date of birth and save changes.


Why are parents labelled as Non-invitable?

  • If a parent is associated with students that don't have a date of birth, they will be marked as Non-invitable. (Pictured below)

  • You will need to add the date of birth before you can invite them.
