  3. Mark in a few taps

    Mark each child present, absent, late or on leave, in any web browser today, or in the app, once it launches.

  4. The office sees today's figures

    The dashboard shows today's attendance across the school as registers are marked.

Attendance: common questions

Can teachers mark attendance on their phones?

Yes, in the Patashala360 app for teachers. Launching soon on Android and iPhone. On a computer, the register works in any web browser today.

Can a register be changed after it is marked?

Yes, by someone allowed to do it, and every change is recorded with who made it and when.

What happens on holidays?

The register follows the school calendar. Holidays and Sundays cannot be marked unless a senior member of staff allows it.

Are parents told when a child is absent?

Yes, through an alert in the Patashala360 app, not by SMS. Launching soon on Android and iPhone.

What about a child who joins in the middle of the year?

The office records the attendance the child already has as an opening figure, so the year's percentage comes out right.

Attendance uses the same student and class records as fees, exams and the timetable in our school ERP for Indian schools. Before you choose any school software, read how to choose the best school management system in India.
