Daily attendance

Take the class register for the correct date and stream, save statuses, then confirm reports and parent visibility.

Steps

  1. Open the register - Attendance Register
    • Path /teacher/attendance. Confirm class, stream, and date.
    • Tip: wrong stream shows the wrong roll (or empty). On mobile, open Filters before hunting missing columns.

  1. Mark statuses

    • Use Present (P), Absent (A), Late (L), Excused (E) per row, or All Present / All Absent then adjust exceptions.
    • Optional remarks per learner.
    • Tip: mark every row before Save. Partial saves look "done" in the room but leave gaps for parents.
  2. Save

    • Click Save.
    • Tip: changing date after marking without re-saving writes to the wrong day.
  3. Review reports - Attendance Reports

    • Confirm totals for the day/week.
    • Tip: Admin/Secretary hubs (Attendance, Attendance) are for oversight, not a substitute for the teacher save.

  1. Parent view - Attendance
    • Parents see outcomes only after a register was taken and saved.
    • Tip: empty parent attendance almost always means the register was never taken for that date.

Role handoff

Teacher owns the daily register. Admin/Secretary review hubs for oversight. Parents read the outcome only.

Common mistakes

  • Wrong date or stream selected
  • Saving before all learners are marked
  • Parents seeing empty data when the register was never taken
  • Relying on All Present without fixing absentees
