Trackers contain progress data, such as your child’s Effort Grades. Reports are issued once a year for students.

In the near future, we also plan to add Special Needs documents and Health Care plans.

6 Changing Your Password
We recommend that you stick with your original password because it is a ‘strong’ password that contains letters and numbers.
But if you do wish to change it, we recommend that you use another ‘strong’ password because that helps to keep your access secure. Here’s how you change your password…
Step 1
Go to the home page by clicking one of these links to Home…
Step 2
Find Administration & click on My profile settings & Change password
Step 3
Enter your details and click Save Changes

7 Logging Out
We know you’ll want to protect the privacy of the details on our MIS Portal.
So one important step is to always logout after using the MIS Portal.
To do this, just click a Log out link that you’ll find in the top and bottom corners of the screen.
This is especially important on shared or public computers and will help prevent other people from being able to access your details.

9 Troubleshooting

But if have any problems, we’d suggest that you…
• Ask your son or daughter for help!
All our students have been told that parents will be attempting to access the MIS Portal. They have been using this school website for over a year so they will hopefully be willing and able to be your first line of help!
• Look for the answer in our Frequently Asked Questions section You will find this in the MIS Guide for Parents page on the QES website.
Click the link above or follow the link from the main page.
• Email Us
If there is still an issue you cannot solve, please get in touch with us via [email protected]
