What is MyChildAtSchool?
MCAS allows parents of students to monitor their child’s progress in school. MCAS is available to all parents that have legal parental responsibility.
How to access MCAS
To receive access to Parent Portal, we require that you have your email address registered here at Wolverley CE Secondary School. This is used to receive an automated email with your login details. You will have previously submitted your email to us on the Student Personal Information Form when your child started.
Within the first half term of the new academic year all parents/carers (with parental responsibility) are sent an email containing their username and password for MCAS. Simply follow the instructions in the email to get logged in.

Student and Contact Information Review
Every year it is a legal requirement and important for us to ensure the information provided on the Student Personal Information Form which is transferred to our Management Information System regarding your son/daughter is up to date and as accurate as possible. It is also your responsibility as parent/carer, who holds parental responsibility (PR), to inform us if any information regarding your son/daughter changes during the school year.
To review the information we hold on your son/daughter, please log into MCAS and check that your son/daughter’s information as well as your own contact information is correct (name, home address, all contact numbers and email etc). You will find that there are certain sections you can amend yourself and others you can only view. Any changes you do make will require verification by us before they update within MCAS, so there may be a short delay before you can see the changes. If there is any information which is incorrect which you cannot edit, please let us know.
Notification of any changes you cannot change within MCAS or if you unable to review the information through MCAS, please email office@wolverley.worcs.sch.uk.
Important:
You will only be able to see and amend your own contact details. It is, therefore, essential that both parents/carers who hold parental responsibility log into MCAS to review their information. Only those parents/carers listed as a contact, who have indicated they hold PR, have supplied us with their own email address will have received their MCAS login information. If you do not have a login, require more information or help registering please email: caroline.palmer@wolverley.worcs.sch.uk.
Please note: Contacts with legal parental responsibility cannot be removed from a student record unless we receive legal documentation requesting this or written permission from the contact themselves.
Other Contacts and Priority Order
You may have provided us with the contact details of other persons (e.g. grandparent, other family member, friend, social worker) we can contact if we were unable to contact yourselves. You will not be able to view their details but if at any time you are aware their contact number, address etc has changed, if they are no longer required as a contact or you simply want to check their details are correct, please contact us by email.
Contact priority order: Contact priority 1 is the person (with PR) whom the student lives with. Contact 2 and 3 are the persons we will contact for medical or in an emergency if we cannot locate contact number 1. If you would like to review your son/daughter’s priority contact order, please contact us via email: office@wolverley.worcs.sch.uk.
For any low-risk off-site visits and PE fixtures and in case of emergency, we use your contact details and the student’s medical information directly from their record, therefore, it is very important this information remains accurate throughout the school year.
As mentioned earlier it is your responsibility as parent/carer to ensure that we hold accurate contact and medical information on your son/daughter at all times and we recommend and encourage you to check your data regularly by using MCAS. If you are unable to review the information we hold, via MCAS, please email us any changes. We will be sending out regular reminders during the academic year.
