My school uses G Suite for Education

If your school email is a Google domain, you can sign in via Google, without the need to set and remember a separate password:

1. From the Login Page, select the option to continue with Google
2. Choose your school account to log in
3. You may also be prompted to allow Boost access to your account information and Drive files. If so, accept these to proceed.

Note: We only use this information to log you into Boost and to let you easily upload files from your Drive to Boost.

I need to activate my account and set a password for Boost

If your school email is not a Google domain, you'll need to 'activate' your account by setting yourself a password.

1. From the Login Page, select the option to Activate your Account
2. Enter your school email address and check the box to agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy
3. Click the button to Send Activation Email and claim your account

We'll send you an email verification to make sure that it's you logging in to the account, ensuring the privacy of your data.

When you receive the email (this should only take a minute or so) then click the link provided: It'll take you to the login page where you can create and confirm the password for your SchoolStatus Boost account.

Note: This password should be a minimum of 8 characters and is case-sensitive.

If you've been waiting a couple of minutes on an activation email that still hasn't arrived and you've checked your Spam/Clutter folders, then please don't hesitate to reach out to support by submitting a ticket—we'll get right on the case with you!
