You will need to have set up 2 factor authentication first (Click here for a guide), so we encourage you to do that when you already know your password so you can use it should you ever forget your login details.


If you don't have 2 factor authentication & have forgot your password, please contact us via ITServicedesk@kscs.org.uk
