Where Current Students and Parents Find Resources on the Claremont College Site

Updated

Current students and parents at Claremont College can find day-to-day resources through the Students and Parents section of the website, which links to the school calendar, absentee reporting, the newsletter, the library, and forms and documents. Student support programs and activities are listed as a separate section in the same main navigation. All of these are reachable from the top menu on any page, including the home page.

The main navigation at a glance

The site's top menu lists these sections: Home, Enrolment, Courses, Open Enrolment, Students and Parents, Student Support, Programs and Activities, Library, Newsletter, Forms & Documents, Absentee, School Calendar, About, and Contact Us. For everyday use, the relevant ones are:

What you need Where to go
Term dates, events, deadlines School Calendar
Reporting a student absence Absentee
School news and updates Newsletter
Library services and resources Library
Permission slips, forms, documents Forms & Documents
Learning support and student wellbeing Student Support
Sport, clubs, enrichment and other activities Programs and Activities

How to reach a resource

  1. Open the Claremont College home page.
  2. Use the top navigation menu and select the section you need — for example, Absentee to report an absence, or School Calendar to check upcoming dates.
  3. If you can't see the menu, use the Search function on the site to look up the page by name.

The expected result is the page for that resource, from which you can complete the task (such as submitting an absence) or download what you need (such as a form).

Common sticking points

  • Menu hidden on mobile: on a phone, the navigation may be collapsed behind a menu button. Open it first before looking for a section.
  • Search box focus: the site includes a function to remove a keyboard trap from the search field, so if the search box behaves oddly with a keyboard or screen reader, that control is there to help.
  • Enrolment vs. current-student pages: enrolment information sits under Enrolment and Open Enrolment, not under Students and Parents. Current families should start from Students and Parents instead.

If you can't find something

The Contact Us page lists the college's address (61 Claremont Link Rd, TAS, 7011) and phone number (03 6249 6868) for questions the website doesn't answer. The footer also links to the site map and privacy policy, and the college maintains Instagram and Facebook pages for updates.
