Pupil Tracking's External Gateway enables pupils, parents, carers, social workers, key workers and any other 3rd party to access data for pupils on Pupil Tracking. Access is via 25 digit licence keys which are generated by Pupil Tracking and can be issued to external users along with a Pupil ID.

Example licence key:
E4JY0 - MJB7P - 5JPMR - RK3LG - H26JP

Each licence key contains information about the type of external user and will only work in conjunction with the Pupil ID it was issued with (a Pupil ID and licence key form a unique pair). Pupil Tracking comes with Parent/Guardian and Pupil licences by default. If you require further licence types please contact Pupil Tracking Limited directly.
