Feature update

Attendance

  • We now display a pupils attendance record for the selected day when submitting attendance

  • Implement the ability to access lessons from the “Teachers” attendance page

When viewing the Analytics > Attendance > Teachers page, clicking the grid spaces will open the End of Class Report for the scheduled lesson.

  • New column to prevent codes being overwritten

If you navigate to School Settings > Attendance > Attendance Codes you will see a new column, “Allow teachers to overwrite”, when set to No teachers will be unable to change the code once it has been set. School Admins will be able to overwrite all codes.

  • Mouseover logs for attendance mark

When in Analytics > Attendance > Display All, mousing over an attendance mark will give you the history of that mark, whether it has been changed, or any previous notes. We will also indicate if the mark was recorded in SIMS, if it does not say SIMS the mark has been recorded within Class Charts.

  • A new filter to show Session/Lesson attendance only

When in Analytics > Attendance > Display All, there is now a fifth filter which allows users to display just Session or just Lesson attendance.

  • You can now bulk set attendance on the “Display all” page via pupil name

You can now select multiple pupils within Analytics > Attendance > Display All, clicking pupil names will highlight them and you can use the Set Attendance button to flood fill attendance.

  • New Attendance Analytics section – Tutor Group Attendance Grid

Under Analytics > Attendance, we have introduced a new section called Teachers AM/PM. This page will show whether all pupils in a tutor group have had their AM/PM attendance taken. You have the ability to send missed register emails to teachers from this page (based on who the tutor is from Three Lines Menu > Tutor Groups).

  • Filter options now affect the printout of Fire Drill
When a filter is applied to Analytics > Attendance > Fire Drill, the changes will be reflected on the printout.

Trackers can be displayed to parents/pupils in School Settings > Wellbeing. 

We display parent/pupil submissions on pupil graphs in their reports, activity feed and display in breakdown reports.
