Student portal

The student portal is the interface dedicated to learners. Simpler and more focused than the administrator interface, it exposes exactly what a student needs day to day: their personal timetable, that of their class or classes, their absences and the sharing of their calendar.

Personal timetable

On opening, the student sees their own timetable for the current week: subjects, times, classrooms, teachers. Three classic views are available:

• Week — standard 5- or 7-day grid depending on the school configuration.
• Day — chronological agenda, useful on mobile.
• List — sequential view of the upcoming lessons, without a grid.

Last-minute changes (a lesson moved, a classroom change, a cancellation) are reflected: the student sees the up-to-date state each time the view is opened or reloaded.

Viewing the class timetable

Beyond their personal timetable, the student can view the timetable of their class or classes and that of the groups of those classes. Their access stops there: they cannot view the timetable of another class, of a teacher, or of a classroom.

The administrator can limit the students' viewing horizon: a setting defines the number of upcoming weeks visible, or sets access to Unlimited. See Visibility restrictions.

Syncing with a personal calendar

The share icon Sharing in the timetable view opens the Sharing window. Its iCal tab provides the personal subscription URL, to paste into Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook. The URL can be copied, downloaded as an .ics file or scanned via a QR code.

See iCal — subscription and dynamic link for the details. The calendar application refreshes the subscription at regular intervals: when the timetable changes in Omniscol, the update appears in the student's calendar.

Declaring an absence

If the school allows it, the student can declare their own absence from the portal: dates, times if applicable, reason and comment. See Declaring an absence.

The request appears in the Absence management module with a pending status until an administrator approves it. The form does not include uploading a supporting document.

Interface language

The interface language follows the language of the user's browser. The student can choose another one from the Language entry in the user menu; this choice is remembered on their account for subsequent logins.
