School portals ParentHub reads

Most international schools in Dubai put grades and attendance in a student-information system — PowerSchool, iSAMS, Engage — and fees or circulars in a second door such as GEMS Connect or the school's own parent app. Homework often lives in Classroom, ManageBac or Satchel One. These guides cover the portals that already have a dedicated ParentHub reader. We do not replace those logins; we pull what matters into one morning digest.

PowerSchool parent portalGrades, attendance and the daily bulletin — what parents see, and what ParentHub pulls. GEMS ConnectFees, circulars and documents across GEMS schools — the admin portal next to PowerSchool. Blog for parentsWhy school email and the parent portal pile up — not a how-to for a specific SIS.

Google Classroom is not a parent portal. ParentHub reads homework and class notices from the student Google account you connect, then puts them next to school email. iSAMS and other SIS names may appear in setup as a known school type; a dedicated reader ships when that school is live.

ParentHub does not replace the portal. It reads it once a day, with your permission, and puts the action items in one edition per child.
