West Herts College will start using Notification Live in September 2025.
The App branded My WHCG is available on Google Play and the App Store. West Herts College consists of 2 colleges - West Herts College and Barnfield College.
The App will be used by both students and parents. West Herts College uses ProSolution for their student record system and ProMonitor for their student tracking system. They will be using the App to quickly show information from these systems.
Students will log into the App with the same credentials as the would to log onto the college network. Parents log into the App with a username and password generated by the system and emailed to the parent.
The college was able to theme the App to use their branded colours and their logo.
The menu can be altered at any point by the college - new menu items can be quickly added and appear immediately within the App.
Students and Parents will be able to quickly see the following data from ProSolution:
The following data will show from ProMonitor:
The college had created an Absense Form within the App for students and parents to fill out. The will include the Reason for absence and the start and end times of the absense. This will automatically come through as an Authorised Absense Change request in ProSolution to be Authorised by staff.
The college had created a Change Request Form within the App for students and parents to fill out. This will allow the user to submit corrected information such as name or address or next of kin details. The information will be used to update the data within ProSolution.
Pages have also been created to provide useful links for the student. For example a link to the college website, the student handbook and Canvas their VLE system.
The App can be used to send push notifications to devices and the college will use this functionality extensively.
West Herts College can send as many notifications as the college wishes for no additional cost.
