Create your school’s Wonde account
If you would like to connect to Education Perfect through Wonde, contact us with your request, and Wonde will be in touch to send you an invitation to connect. Once you have received the email invitation, you can begin your school’s account creation.
Please ensure that this process is followed by someone who has the authority to approve access to school data.
Open the email and click ‘Create Account’:
You will then be taken to your school’s Wonde portal. Here, you will be asked to confirm your school name and that you have permission to approve access to school data stored in your Student Management/ Information System.
NB: If you don’t have permission, an additional screen will ask for the correct contact details to be added. A new email invite is then sent to the relevant person.
Continue to fill out the remaining fields and then click ‘Create account’. Your school’s Wonde account will then become active and you will be able to review and approve the requests from third party applications to connect.
Upon clicking Create Account, your account will become active and you will be able to review and approve the requests from EP to connect.
Approving third party applications
When you log into the Wonde portal, the Dashboard displays your Applications page, which shows any new pending applications that have requested to connect and are ‘Pending Approval’.
The user will need to click on the EP application and then into Permissions.
Once here, you will need to review the requested data permissions.
After you have thoroughly read through the permissions, you will be able to select to either approve access or decline. Once you select Approve access a confirmation email will be sent to your school and to EP.
The email includes details on what, who and when permissions were approved. If you select Decline access, EP will be notified.
If at any point EP tries to change the permissions or access extra data, this will need to be approved again by your school.
If you are unhappy with the permissions Education Perfect requested, feel free to contact us directly to discuss why we have requested certain permissions and what you would be comfortable with.
When you approve access, an email approval receipt will be sent to you and EP. The email receipt details the permissions, who approved them, their position, and the date/time they were approved.
EP will receive the relevant notification if the Decline access option is selected.
Integrating with your Student Management/Information System
Once you have granted access to EP, you will be taken through to the simple steps of connecting Wonde to the school’s Student Management/ Information System (i.e. Sentral, Synergetic, NSW SAIS, KAMAR, TASS, iSAMS, PCSchool etc.)
This can be done by following the simple installation guide or with the help of one of the Wonde team.
(If your school is already using Wonde to populate other applications and has already completed the Integration to your Student Management/ Information System, you can skip this step)
During the process, you will need to select which SMS/SIS your school uses.
Selecting your SMS/SIS will then provide you with a guide on how to further complete the integration, or you also have the option to make an appointment with Wonde to work through the next steps together.
Access Controls
Use Wonde’s Access Controls to specify any students who should be excluded. To manage these, ensure the application has been Approved first.
- Log in to edu.wonde.com
- Select Education Perfect, and then Access Controls.
- Filter individual students/teachers accordingly. There are three options available:
- The first option (default) allows all users associated with the permissions to be accessed.
- Use the second option to exclude specific users. The data associated with any individuals selected will not be passed on to Education Perfect.
- Use the third option to only include data for a small number of users. Only the data associated with the individuals selected will be passed onto Education Perfect. All other users will be excluded.
For schools that wish to exclude certain students, EP recommends the second option as this does not interfere with automatically syncing new students.

What happens next?
Once you’re all set up and have approved access, EP will be notified automatically and we’ll start mapping your data on our end! Syncs are performed automatically every day.
Students added by the sync won’t receive any automatic notifications from EP, as we know some teachers would prefer to notify students themselves.
Once your classes are added, you can:
