Guardian

The Guardian page lets you manage guardian (parent) accounts independently from student records. While guardians are typically created automatically during student admission, this page provides a dedicated interface to view, create, edit, and delete guardian accounts.

Guardian ↔ Student Relationship

A guardian account can be linked to multiple students (e.g., siblings attending the same school). Each student is linked to exactly one guardian. Guardians use the Stunov+ Student/Parent app to track their children's attendance, fees, grades, and announcements.

Create a Guardian

Guardians are created through the student admission form — there is no separate guardian creation page. When you admit a new student, the guardian section of the admission form collects all the required guardian details (name, email, mobile, gender, image).

Guardians can be created in two ways:

  1. During student admission — fill in the guardian fields in the student admission form. If the guardian email is new, a new guardian account is created automatically.
  2. During bulk import — include guardian details in the CSV file when using Add Bulk Data.
Existing guardian

If you enter an email that already belongs to an existing guardian, the system auto-populates their details and links the new student to that guardian — no duplicate account is created.

1
Click the Edit button
In the **Action** column of the guardian you want to modify, click the **Edit** (pencil) button.
2
Modify any fields
Update the guardian's name, email, mobile, gender, or profile image. All fields are editable.
3
Save changes
Click **Submit** to save your changes.
Email change

Changing a guardian's email will change their login credential. Make sure to notify the guardian of their new login email.


Delete a Guardian

1
Click the Delete button
In the **Action** column, click the **Delete** (trash) icon next to the guardian.
2
Confirm deletion
Click **Confirm** in the dialog to delete the guardian account.
Delete restriction

A guardian cannot be deleted if they are still linked to active students. You must first reassign or delete the linked students before removing the guardian account.


Guardian Search (during Admission)

When admitting a new student, the Guardian Email field in the admission form includes a search function:

1
Type the guardian email
In the student admission form, type an email address in the **Guardian Email** field.
2
Auto-populate if found
If a guardian with that email exists, their details (name, mobile, gender) auto-populate. The new student is **linked to the existing guardian** — no duplicate account is created.

This ensures that siblings are correctly linked to the same parent account.


Guardian App Access

Guardians use the Stunov+ Student/Parent app (available on iOS and Android) to:

  • View their children's attendance, grades, and exam results
  • Track fee payments and outstanding balances
  • Receive announcements and notifications from the school
  • View timetables and holiday schedules
  • Communicate with teachers (if enabled)

The guardian logs in with their email and password. The default password is set during student admission (often the mobile number or a standard password).
