Leave and visits that are recorded, not sent by text

Student leave requests and guardian visits get a formal path and a history

Leave requested by message to a form teacher is easily lost among hundreds of other chats, and guardian visits are often only written in a visitors' book nobody opens again. Both are moved onto a formal path so the school knows exactly who left, when, and with whose permission.

  • Leave requested through the app, not a private message
  • Guardian visits recorded with their timestamps
  • A history you can trace when you need it

What you get

  • Requests do not drown in chat

    A request arrives as data, not a message a form teacher has to dig back through other conversations to find.

  • The school knows who has left

    Every departure is recorded with its timestamp — important for boarding schools and for any school that controls its gate.

  • Visits are documented

    Parent and guardian visits are recorded systematically, giving the school a visit history it can look back through.

  • Joined to the rest of the record

    Leave and visits sit in the same module as other pastoral records, so the picture of a student is not scattered across places.

In the app

Two flows in the Student Affairs menu

Parents submit and review both from the same app.

FAQ

Questions about Leave & Visits

Does leave need approval before it takes effect?
The approval flow follows your school's policy. Either way, every request is recorded so its status is clear and traceable.
Is this module suited to boarding schools?
Very much so. Leave from the dormitory and guardian visits are daily realities for boarding schools, and this module handles both.
How is this different from the Visitors' Book?
Visits record a guardian arriving in connection with a particular student, while the Visitors' Book records school visitors generally, in the Announcements module.
