Inviting staff to the app

Adding a staff member to the directory is a record-keeping action — it doesn't automatically give them access to SchoolWise. To let them log in, you need to send an invitation.

  • 1 Find the staff member in the directory. If they haven't been invited yet, their row shows a Send Invite button.
  • 2 Click Send Invite. SchoolWise sends an invitation email to the address on their record.
  • 3 Once the staff member clicks the link in the email and sets up their account, their row shows Invite Accepted and the Send Invite button disappears.
Dashboard check: The Dashboard's Pending Staff Invites panel lists everyone who has been invited but not yet accepted. Follow up with anyone showing there if their access is overdue.
Tip: If a staff member didn't receive the invitation email, check their email address is correct under Edit, then click Send Invite again.

Editing and removing staff

Edit

Click Edit on any staff row to update their details. Changes save immediately and are reflected in the Timetable and Class Setup dropdowns that reference staff names.

Delete

Click Delete to remove a staff member from the directory. This removes them from timetable dropdowns and class teacher assignments, but does not delete historical records (e.g., attendance sessions they marked).

Note: If a staff member has accepted their invitation and has an active account, deleting them from the directory does not automatically revoke their app access. Contact support if you need to remove login access for a departing staff member.
