Setting up the school
Do these once, in this order. Tap a step to go there. Everything can be changed later.
Add a class
Classes
Students
A student's roll number is how teachers mark them. Saving an existing roll number updates that student. Removing keeps their past attendance.
Timetable
For each period, choose who teaches it and the subject. Teachers then see their own classes each day, and the principal sees which periods are not taken.
Holidays
On a holiday nothing is "not taken", the alert box stays quiet and parents get no alerts.
Paste from Excel
In Excel or Google Sheets, select the table including the header row, copy, and paste below. Do them in this order the first time: Staff → Sections → Students → Timetable.
Parent slips
What the school has
Add a teacher, professor or staff member
Staff
"Waiting" means they have not used their setup code yet. A new code also signs that person out everywhere.
Principal alert boxes
A box on the principal's desk beeps when a class is not taken or starts late. Create a key here and type it into the box's setup page. A key is shown only once; revoke it if a box is lost.
School / college
The logo shows beside the school's name on every screen and on the parents' page. The photo of the building or campus shows on the parents' page.
Student photos
Tap a student to add or change their photo. To add a whole class at once, name each photo by roll number (1.jpg, 2.jpg, 12.jpg…) and choose them all together. Teachers can also take photos in class, from Roll call.
