Parent Communication

Mount Lawley Primary School is in the process of transitioning from using the Connect platform to Compass over the 2025/2026 period as part of the Education Department's Program Kaartidjin. Compass will ensure communication between families and carers is efficient and easy. 

Families are currently able to

  • report student absences
  • receive School Reports
  • send and receive school communication

 

Using Compass in the future

Compass is a school management solution that allows parents and carers to access up-to-date and meaningful information about your school and your child’s progress. 

Compass includes many different features, including the ability to:

  • View up-to-date class and school attendance information
  • Enter upcoming or past absences for your child
  • Update your registered email and mobile number (used for SMS alerts)
  • Access information regarding upcoming events and news
  • Communicate with your child’s teachers
  • Access your child’s academic progress and school reports.

The Department of Education’s Compass set up video is a good resource to learn how to access and navigate the Compass parent portal from a desktop or mobile device.

Accessing Compass

All contacts listed as Parent/Guardian 1 and 2 at our school will be emailed a username and one time passcode to access the Compass platform.

Compass is accessible via the Web or through the Compass mobile app which is available to download via the App Store and Google Play.

If you have not received an invitation to login into Compass, or need assistance with your account, please email the Front Office at mountlawley.ps@education.wa.edu.au

Please note that although Compass will be used in a greater capacity in the future, only attendance, school reports and communication features are currently active for families.
