ePortal Launch

ePortal provides a web based view of the school's system by using Internet Explorer to access the system.

Using ePortal you will have access to the data held for any student you are parentally responsible for. You will be able to view personal details and contact numbers, attendance details, conduct logs, report and assessment information and SATS results.

You will not be able to modify any information but if you find that some details are incorrect then please get in touch with the school to ensure that they are updated.

Using ePortal is exactly the same as using any other webpage. If you are familiar with the internet you will have no problems finding your way around, if you are less familiar you will find everything you need to know has been included in the guide provided. Please see the links under 'ePortal Info' (top right menu)

Emergency Closures

If weather conditions become bad enough to close schools the City Council usually makes the decision centrally. Sometimes, there are reasons just to close one school, such as a burst pipe, which the Headteacher will decide on. Whatever the event parents and carers will usually be informed via local radio stations:

• Heart FM - 100.7fm
• Radio WM - 95.6fm
• BRMB - 96.4fm

Also check the following websites:

 BRMB
 Heart FM
 BBC Radio WM
 The Met Office
 Birmingham Local Gov

We will also endeavour to send a text to all parents but if the school is closed then it might not be possible for staff to do this.
