Record arrivals and departures

Keep an accurate attendance record for the selected class and day.

Before you begin

Open the correct school, class and date.

Step by step

  1. Open Attendance, choose the class and check the date.
  2. Find the correct child and read the current attendance status.
  3. Use Check in for an actual arrival, or Check out for an actual departure.
  4. Enter the relevant time or note when offered and review it before saving.
  5. Check the updated entry for the selected child, class and date.
  6. If the entry says Saved on this device or Pending, reconnect and check synchronisation.

Check the result

The intended attendance entry is visible for the correct child and date.

A useful check

A pending entry still needs synchronisation. For school-wide patterns, open Programmes → Reports.

If the result is different, check the account and school first, then contact the team with the task and error wording.
