MCAS (My Child at School)
To provide parents and carers with information about your child, we use MCAS (My Child at School).
MCAS allows you to review your child's attendance, view key information such as your child's timetable and club enrolment. You can also keep your details up to date on our records. We also use the app for most communication and alerts.
Parents have received emails with details on how to activate your account. If you have not, please see the information below.
Accessing MCAS
The MCAS Login process has recently changed, and you no longer need the School ID, Username or Invitation Code. Parents/carers can now log in to the MCAS online portal using an Email Address.
- From within the web browser type www.mychildatschool.com or access the MCAS mobile phone app, this will open the Parent Login screen.
- On the App, you may be asked for a 5 digit Pin - you can choose this yourself.
- Enter your Email Address and Password. Use the Email Address registered to the MCAS account and the Password to Login.
- Click on the Login button.
- Login to the MCAS account and see all Students linked to that Email Address.

We advises all parents to use strong passwords to protect the confidential personal information contained within MCAS. Parents should also avoid using obvious choices of passwords, such as the name of your child or pet, as someone could find such information elsewhere.
Do Not Share Passwords and never disclose your password to another individual, whether this be a family member or other individual, for any reason. If you think that someone else knows your password, change it immediately. Harris Academy Clapham will never ask you for your MCAS password.
