# Firefly Parent Portal

Firefly is our new parent portal designed to bring all of your digital interactions with school into one place. You will be able to see behaviour, attendance, reviews, and reports as you have been able to do in Insight, but in addition to this you will also be able to view a brief overview of Teams assignments set including the due date and if it is overdue. (in the same way we used to share home learning information on Insight before Teams). It will also be the place you go to book onto virtual events, CASEO activities, trips and receive communication from school. In summary we are now able to replace 3 separate services (Insight, SchoolCloud &amp; ParentMail) with one single portal and be able to engage with you in a more consistent way than we have previously been able to.
Firefly has a great web interface that works on all types of devices and Apps for both parents and students, which will make it easier for parents and students to interact with school.
