New trust

Your new platform is ready

We are pleased to inform you that the ProgressTeaching platforms for your trust have been created and linked to each Management Information System (MIS). We would ask that you now kindly complete the following steps, which are required for trust level configuration:

First steps: user accounts and trust mappings

Please review the user accounts that have been created in the platform, checking that email addresses are accurate. Where email addresses are inaccurate, please update them using the instructions in the ‘Trust User Management’ link below.

• Assign appropriate roles; Admin, School Leader, Staff.
• Make any users that should not have access to the platform inactive.
• Manually create additional users that do not exist in your school MIS.

Here is a Knowledge Base article to support with the completion of the above steps: Trust User Management

Configure trust items

You should also review and where necessary amend the trust standard and trust mapping configuration in the following areas using these articles:

• Trust standard configuration: Trust Standard
• Map similar subjects: Trust Mapping - Subjects
• Map equivalent habits: Trust Mapping - Habits
• Map categories: Trust Mapping - Categories
• Map teacher types: Trust Mapping - Teacher Types

Providing access to the platform

Once these tasks have been completed and you wish your staff to log into the platform, share the following with them:

• this link: https://app.progressteaching.com/
• this article, which contains guidance on the login process: Logging into the platform

Please be aware that as soon as you share the login link with staff, they will be able to access the platform, so permissions must be correctly assigned before you share the link.

Next steps: allocating permissions

Now that the trust configuration is in place each platform should be reviewed by the school to check users, their assigned roles, and then complete the process of allocating permissions in the feedback area of the platform. There are details on the process for the schools to follow here: New platform

Good luck with completing this process and please do get in touch with us if any questions arise.
