Use this guide to help a student register for your school’s app or sign in to an existing student account.
1. Register as a student
- Download and open the school’s app. Search for the school’s name in the App Store or Google Play.
- Tap Register, choose Student and tap Next.
- Enter the parent/guardian’s mobile number that the school holds on the student’s record, with the correct country code. For an Irish number, choose 353 and leave out the leading 0.
- The verification code (OTP) is sent by SMS to that parent/guardian’s phone. Enter the code when prompted.
- Follow the steps on screen. The student enters their own email address, or their school email address if they have one, and creates their own password.
- After the student enters their email and password, a verification link is sent to the email address they entered.
- Open that email and click the verification link to verify the email address.
- Return to the school app and tap the Verified button to continue.
Check the email spelling carefully before continuing. A mistyped email address is a common reason students cannot log in later. The parent’s phone number is used for the OTP; the student’s email and chosen password are used for login.
2. Log in after registration
- Open the same school app and tap Login.
- Enter the student email address used during registration and the password the student created.
- Tap Login.
If the password is forgotten, use Forgot password on the login screen.
If registration or login does not work
- Parent’s number is not recognised: school staff should check the correct guardian number and country code in the student record. See Change a Parent or Guardian’s Mobile Number.
- OTP has not arrived: check the parent’s phone, not the student’s phone. Staff can follow the OTP Report guide.
- Registration is waiting for email verification: open the verification email sent to the student’s entered address, click its link, then return to the app and tap Verified.
- Email/password is not accepted: check for spelling mistakes and confirm which student email address was used. Do not assume it is the parent’s email address.
- Email was entered incorrectly, or the account still cannot be accessed: contact staffsupport@uniqueschools.ie for help. Do not create another account to try to fix it, or send passwords or OTPs by email.
