New staff, guardian, or student users aren’t automatically prompted to log in—schools decide when to welcome them to SchoolStatus Connect.
How to Send a Formal Invitation

Invitations will be sent only to users in your selected audience who haven’t yet logged in and joined your school on SchoolStatus Connect. Users who have already logged in won’t receive another invitation. Consider repeating this process periodically to invite new users to log in throughout the year.
📝 Note: Even without a formal invitation, new users can still receive your messages and join your school.
When a user logs in for the first time, they’ll be prompted to set a password and choose their preferred language.
After that, they can sign in to their SchoolStatus Connect account anytime.
