# How to Reset a Password for a Parent or Student

## This article is for when a parent/student needs to have their password reset so they can log in to the system

**For parent accounts**  
First, if it's a parent account you may go to the parents and enquiries icon which is the first icon from the A+ logo when you're on the home page - choose parents and it'll provide a table of the list of parents you have on that form.

You may then tick on the box of the parent you wish to change the password \> a list of actions will show and you'd be able to change the password from there.

**For student accounts**

If it's a student you may also find the student via the registered students table, or use the 2nd way which is to search for the student profile in the search bar beside the Knowledge Base Icon.

Once the student is found click on their name and you'll then be routed to their profile which has a list of actions including change password.
