Compass School Manager

Princes Hill Primary School is implementing a staged release of our new school management software, Compass School Manager to manage the attendance of students. Parents and carers will need to use this online system to inform the school of any approved absences and late arrivals.

If parents do not use this system, their child’s absences will be recorded on the department database and these will be calculated as part of the student reports each semester. Therefore, it is essential that all absences and late arrivals are explained by parents through COMPASS.

Please make sure that you begin using this system no later than Monday November 11

If you do not have on-line access please make a time to see Tomo Harada or Kerri Gibson to discuss alternatives.

You can access Compass through http://phps.vic.jdlf.com.au or by clicking on the link (on the right hand side) provided on our school website. Compass can be accessed using any device with a browser.

1. Login to Compass using the username and password provided in this letter.
2. Confirm your personal details and change your password.
3. If your child has any unapproved absences or late arrivals, you will see this on the ‘Alert’ panel.
4. Click on the link for more information.
5. Click on any unapproved absences or late arrivals and click on the “Parent Approve” button.
6. Choose the appropriate reason from the drop down menu and any relevant details or comments.

Please report any problems with your neighbourhood teachers.
