About these guides

Section titled “About these guides”

Every guide is written from the current Student Radar product. Screenshots come from Student Radar’s demo schools, so every name and record in them is made up. What you can see depends on your role and how your school has set Student Radar up, so your screens may differ a little.

If a guide doesn’t match what you see, or you can’t find what you need, ask your school’s Student Radar administrator. Parents and pupils should contact the school office.
