Guardian Settings
Guardian Settings provides four configuration tabs — Account, Notifications, Privacy, and Preferences. Each tab manages a different aspect of the guardian's experience on BeamEdUp.
Account Tab
The Account tab lets guardians update their personal information and change their password.
| Field | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Full Name | Required | text | The guardian's display name. |
Required | Primary email address used for login and notifications. | ||
Phone | Optional | text | Contact phone number for SMS notifications. |
Current Password | Optional | password | Required when changing password. Must match the existing password. |
New Password | Optional | password | The new password to set. Must meet the organization's password policy. |
My Children
The My Children page (accessible from Settings → Children) displays all learner accounts linked to the guardian. This is a view-only page — guardians can see their children's names, emails, classes, and sections but cannot add or remove links.
Privacy Tab
Privacy settings control what information is visible to other users in the organization.
| Field | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Profile Visibility | Required | select | Controls who can view the guardian's profile. Options: "Teachers Only" or "Only Me". |
Show Email | Optional | toggle | When enabled, the guardian's email is visible to instructors. |

Preferences Tab
Display and regional preferences that customize the guardian's portal experience.

Theme | Required | select | Visual theme preference: Light, Dark, or Auto (follows system setting). |
Saving Changes
Each tab has its own Save and Cancel buttons. Changes are saved independently per tab — saving account details does not affect notification or privacy settings. A success notification confirms when settings are saved.
