School Reports

School Reports will be available for parents to view in January through our VSWare system only.
An example of where the VSWare tab is located on the school app is visible below.
VSWare enables parents to view their son's timetable, attendance and school reports. It is imperative that every parent has access to this system.
In order to ensure that you have access please update the school app on your phone to the newest version V5. The new V5 will require you to enter your phone number and if successfully matched with our school records an activation code will be text to your phone. You will be prompted to enter the digits of this activation code into the app and then your account will be activated. If you experience any issues when logging in please email support@uniqueschools.ie
Please ensure that you hit the 'login' button as opposed to the 'registration' button when updating the app on your phone.
Due to new GDPR regulations VSWare will no longer pre-populate passwords for VSWare. A text from the school containing the username for VSWare will be sent to every parent on Monday 9th December. Further information about creating a password for VSWare login will be sent via the app on Monday.
Many thanks,
Ms Power

Tomorrow 4C and 4D will travel to Belfast for the 2nd of our trips to Belfast with Ms Cassidy, Ms Van Esbeck and myself,. We expect a full turn out apart from the five students who have informed us that they are unable to travel. The bus will be leaving the School in the morning at 8am and we will be back around 4pm so that some of the lads can get to their training sessions tomorrow evening. The feedback from the lads who were on this trip last week was very positive and I am really looking forward to taking the trip myself.
regards. Niall Rennick.
