Question: How do I add a member of staff to the school in MMS?

All staff lists in MMS are controlled by the school, and members of staff can be added to the school by a school administrator. To add a member of staff:

  • Log into MMS
  • Ensure that the school you wish to add the user to is selected from the school drop down list at the top of the modules page
  • Click the 'View School' button to be directed to the School page
  • Click the 'Assign Staff Roles' link (the first link in the People section'
  • You will now be directed to a page listing all staff within the school as added to MMS.
  • Near the top of the page there is a 'Search' section. Enter the users username into the Search field and click the 'Search' button. The user will appear in a bulleted list beneath the Search field.
  • Select the user by ticking the check box to the right of the name and click the 'Import External Users' button

The member of staff will now appear in the table listing all school staff. To give a member of staff a specific school role:

  • Still on the Assign Staff Roles page, find the column corresponding to the role you wish to give the user
  • Scroll down the table until you locate the user and check the tick box in the column of the role you wish to give the user
  • Scroll to the bottom of the table and click the 'Update Roles' button
