The daily register records whether each student was present, absent, late, or excused on a given school day.
Form teachers
Go to My Classes, click your class, and open the Attendance tab.
The register shows every enrolled student. For each student, tap one of the four status buttons:
| Button | Meaning |
|---|---|
| P — Present | Attended as normal |
| A — Absent | Did not attend, no excuse |
| L — Late | Arrived after the bell |
| E — Excused | Absent with an accepted reason |
You can add a short note to any student row — for example, a reason for absence or a late-arrival time. When marking a student Present, any existing note is cleared automatically.
Use the Date field at the top right to mark or correct the register for a previous date. You cannot select a future date.
When you are done, click Save register. A confirmation toast shows how many students were saved.
Admins and attendance officers
Admins and users with the Attendance capability can reach any class's register from Attendance → Overview. Click a class card on the overview page to open its register directly.
The workflow is the same as above.
Gate arrivals and departures
If your school has arrival/departure capture turned on at the gate (see Attendance officer hub), pupils scanned in or out at the gate show their in and out times directly on their register row — this happens automatically, before anyone opens the register.
If a pupil is scanned in after the school's configured "late after" time, they're pre-marked Late on the register with a note explaining why. Change the status if that's not correct.
Roster flags
If a student turns up who is not on your class list, or if a student has left but is still showing, click Roster looks wrong? Flag it (below the status tally on the register) to raise a flag. The attendance officer hub will show the flag with options to add the pupil or remove them from the class. See Attendance officer hub for details.
