We are delighted to announce that we have launched the Aladdin Schools Connect app to families of St Ciarán’s NS, Castlejordan for all our classes.
The school uses the Aladdin Schools software service http://www.aladdin.ie for all administration and Connect will give you secure access to messages from the school. The service allows you access to your child’s attendance, test results, reports cards etc via secure login from your internet browser or Aladdin Connect App.
Aladdin Connect App is a fantastic way to enhance a school’s communication with parents. It enables parents to stay connected and informed about their child’s education by;
- Ensuring that the school has their most up to date contact information.
- Keeping parents apprised of their child’s attendance and punctuality.
- Keeping parents up to date on school and classroom news via noticeboard messages
- Allowing parents view their child’s approved report card.
- Allowing parents to view their child’s latest standardised test results
Along with strengthening our home/school partnership, we also envisage Aladdin Connect helping the school by;
- Helping to improve attendance and punctuality by allowing parents to keep track of any school days their child may have currently missed, along with late arrival and early leaving information.
- Helping to reduce the amount of class/school notes being sent home
- Helping the school/teachers communicate with parents when the need arises.
- Reducing costs by eliminating the need to send school report cards by post.
- Reducing costs by reducing the number of text messages that need to be sent.
You can rest assured that Aladdin Schools uses state-of-the-art security to safeguard information entered by the school and data is stored and processed in strict compliance with Irish and European data protection laws.
HOW IT WORKS:
When your child starts school with us, you will receive a text message/email message containing your registration link. There will be one link per parent which will allow the parent to access information for all their children in the school from one user account. Please do not forward this text/email or share this link as this is a unique registration code for each parent for your child/children in this school. During registration you will choose a password that will be used in conjunction with your email. Address to securely access the Aladdin Connect going forward. If you choose you may share your own contact details with other parents of children in the same class as your children, but please be reassured that this information will NOT be shared unless you choose to share it. Once you are registered you will be sent an email with links to download the Aladdin Connect App for your mobile device. The main advantage of using the App is to retrieve immediate alerts for app messages sent by your school. Downloading the app is highly recommended to enhance the parents and school’s Connect experience.
By default, both parents will have access to view their child’s information. If for any reason you do NOT wish to share your own personal contact information within the family circle, or if you have any concerns regarding your particular family setup, please contact the school, in confidence, to discuss or have this facility restricted.
To ensure you stay connected to the App, please let the school know if your email address or phone number has changed.
We hope you enjoy using Aladdin Connect. Below are some images to help simplify the setting up of the App.
