Attendance at activities gets its own record too

Congregational prayers, clubs, and other school activities with summaries that read both ways

What happens outside lesson time is often the hardest to capture, even though that is exactly where pastoral development takes place. Activity attendance gives each event its own register, with summaries that can be read by activity or by student.

  • One activity, one register and its own settings
  • Summaries by activity and by student
  • Applies to students as well as teachers and staff

What you get

  • Each activity configured on its own

    Congregational prayers, clubs, or annual events each carry their own attendance settings, rather than being forced onto one shared schedule.

  • Two ways to read the data

    The by-activity summary answers who attended an event; the by-student summary answers how active a particular child has been.

  • Supervisors are counted too

    Activity attendance also covers teachers and staff, so a supervisor's presence can be traced just as a participant's can.

  • Real evidence for pastoral work

    Activity attendance data gives an objective basis for conduct assessment and pastoral development, rather than a supervisor's impression.

FAQ

Questions about Activity Attendance

Which activities can be recorded?
Activities are defined by the school — congregational prayers, Qur'an study, clubs, assemblies, or anything else. Each carries its own attendance settings.
Does activity attendance use the same card?
Yes. The card used for daily attendance is also used for activity attendance, so no additional identity device is needed.
Can activity summaries be pulled per student?
Yes. Summaries are available by activity and by student, so the same data can be read from two angles as needed.
