We're just starting the process of moving from the old Parent Portal to the new Cloud Parent Portal. Having just completed the iUniversity course I noted that some features will be controlled in both the Cloud Portal Manager and the Parent Portal ...
Feature parity between Leave Request and Quick Actions - Leave Request
Currently if a parent uses communication/leave-requests to submit a leave request they get times and an area to leave a note. We should be able to toggle this note field as being required. Also, if a parent uses the Quick Action from the dashboard...
We were able to make the Parent Portal simple and objective with only a few pages in the older version - customizing names, menus, their order, etc. This was a huge loss from the previous one, and now we will have to share a longer version and rec...

We frequently need to switch one-off lessons between classrooms but this cannot be achieved through cover as the room needs to be closed to move the lesson out and the venue is then not available to receive the swapped lesson. It would be benefici...
Creating Approver Tag Journey, then selecting which reasons are relevant
To help with config and system maintenance, it would be better if we formed the approver tag journey first e.g. Line Manager < Head Teacher and then selected from a drop down list that we would like to apply this to reasons. Would save time, sp...
