Don't bother. Logged in on 3rd attempt to discover it does nothing
RUBBISH
Never got any use out of it
Useless. Doesn't work.
Rubbish App! Installed because I wanted to get a message for my child's place in a school. Waited the whole day and got nothing from the App. Good job I was in and out of the actual EAdmissions website to see the school offer. This app is pointless. Going to uninstall it now!
My messages: blank screen looping, no information... poor design
Good
Could not login at all!
Pathetic. I loaded this app for one reason... to be notified of my daughters secondary school placement. It's now a full day after notices went out and I still don't have any messages in the app (I received the notification online at the same time as everyone else though). What do you call something that cannot perform it's one specific function? Useless. Only giving it 1 star because I can't choose zero stars.
