Required documents

Who can do this: Administrator

Tell PinkTower which documents your school needs for each child. Parents then see exactly what to upload, and you can see at a glance who is missing what.

The Required documents list

Add a required document

  1. Open Documents in the sidebar. The Required documents page opens.
  2. Press Add document.
  3. Enter a Name, such as Birth certificate.
  4. Add a Description telling parents what to upload, if it helps.
  5. Choose a Category:
    • Identity: birth certificates, ID.
    • Medical: immunisation cards, allergy plans. The school nurse can open these.
    • Other: consent forms, agreements.
  6. Under Applies to, choose:
    • All classes: every child in the school, including any grade you add later.
    • Selected grades: then tick the grades it applies to.
  7. Press Add document.

The parents of the children it applies to are notified straight away, and by email, with a link to their Paperwork page.

The category decides who can open a document

Medical documents are the only ones the school nurse can open. Identity and Other documents are seen only by administrators and the child's own parents. Changing a document's category changes who can open the copies already uploaded.
