Parent Portal
In the CBHS Parent Portal, your username is now the same as your email address. This change means that there is no longer any need to share a password between parents/caregivers.
Your password remains unchanged; if you know your password, can now log in using your email address for the username. If this is your first time accessing the portal, or you don’t know your password, or your password isn’t working, please follow the ‘Forgot Password?’ steps outlined in the Portal guide. Please enter your email address as the username when prompted.
Once you’ve logged in, you can change your password using the blue padlock icon in the top-right corner.
Please refer to the Portal guide below for additional information.
