A New Way to Stay Connected

At The Derby High School, we value strong communication between home and school. To make this even easier, we are launching MyChildAtSchool (MCAS), a secure online portal and mobile app that gives you instant access to key information about your child’s education

Log in to MCAS

MCAS will become our main platform for sharing important updates, reports and messages with you. It’s designed to make accessing school information simpler, faster, and all in one place.

What is MCAS?

The MyChildAtSchool app and web portal provide real-time access to information about your child, including:

Attendance and punctuality
Behaviour and achievements
Academic reports and progress

Messages and announcements

You can access MCAS through the website or by downloading the free mobile app.
