Most schools sync their MIS data to Access GCSEPod, which means student accounts get created automatically and no one needs to set them up manually.
However, if your school does not have the integration enabled, you will need to set up student accounts directly from Access GCSEPod by following the steps below:
Click Monitor from the menu on the left.
Click Create User under Actions.
Select Student.
Fill in the required fields:
First Name
Last Name
Date of birth
Fill in the optional fields:
Email address
Username
Password
Recovery email address
Tick the Force a password reset on login? box to prompt the user to change their password when they log in for the first time.
Click Create.
📌 Note: Even though the email address, username and password fields are optional, we would recommend setting them up at this stage in order to activate the account.
You can then provide the student with the login details you've set up for them instead of needing them to choose a username and password.
