When you open the school admissions portal, select the 'Register link'. You'll find this just under the Liverpool City Council logo where it says 'Don't have an account? Please register'. Or you can choose the middle link in the top right corner, 'Register'.

Complete all fields as requested. Clicking on each question will tell you how to complete a field.

For example, clicking on 'Password' will tell you how many characters you need to use and what they must consist of.

Anything with a red star next to it means you must fill it in or you won't be able to continue.

The password that you choose is what you will use to sign in to your account, once registration is completed.

Select the blue 'Submit registration' button to submit your registration. The button is located at the bottom of the page and looks like this:

When you click on the button it should take you to a confirmation screen with a message.

If you do not continue to the confirmation screen you might not have completed some of the required fields with the red star.

Complete the fields and submit again.

When you submit your registration you will see a screen with a message to say we've sent you an email containing a link:

Go to your email inbox and click on the link we emailed to you:

The link will open a page which will ask you to confirm your email address.

If the link doesn't open when you click on it, copy it and paste it directly into your browser to complete the process.

If the email is not in your inbox, check your junk mail folder.

When you have entered and confirmed your password, this will activate your account and complete your registration. You will see a thank-you message on screen:

You can now sign in to the portal. Your username is your email address and your password will be the password you created during registration.

If you forget your password, just click 'Forgot password' and you will be able to reset it.
