Watch the Sport Webinar (Fixtures ... Consent, Registers and Travel Information) to find out more about this functionality.
If you are keen to use any of these features, please contact SOCS Support (support@misocs.com) to request that options 1, 2 and/or 3 are set up (ready for you to use from training session 1). Alternatively, we can explore the new functionality as part of training session 1 using our demo school.
Option 1: Login - Do you want to give login access to pupils and/or parents?
+ This gives them access to their individual SOCS Pupil Calendar where they can see sport fixtures (when the pupil has been added to a published team sheet).
+ This functionality makes it possible for your school to display the pupil's academic timetable (sync from your MIS) to pupils/parents in the SOCS Pupil Calendar.
+ Login access also provides pupils/parents with a link to sync SOCS sport fixtures to their personal calendar app (Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar etc.).
If Option 1 is 'YES, login for parents' you can also consider:
Option 2: Travel - Do you want the ability to ask parents about travel arrangements to/from the fixture?
This functionality is 'off' by default but can be switched 'on' for a fixture when (or after) it is created.
If you request travel information, either to the fixture and/or from the fixture, the default is 'S' for school transport which can be changed by a parent (or school staff) to 'P' for parent.
and/or
Option 3: Consent - Do you want the ability to ask parents for their consent for the fixture?
This functionality is 'off' by default but can be switched 'on' for a fixture when (or after) it is created.
If you request consent, the default is '?' and can be changed by a parent to 'Y' or 'N' .
Here is where you can activate the options for a fixture when you use Team Sheet Builder to add pupils to the team sheet:
