The Student Profile feature in the Year Head Dashboard provides staff with a centralized, detailed view of all attendance-related information and parent communications for each student. This makes it easy to manage and track individual attendance records, notes, and requests throughout the academic year.
Key Features of the Student Profile
1. Parent/Guardian Contact Details:
Displays all contact numbers associated with the parents or guardians of the student. This allows staff to quickly access contact information if needed for communication purposes.
2. Date Range Filtering:
By default, the profile shows all attendance data from the start of the academic year. You can change the date range via the option located beside the “Summary” heading to view attendance for a specific period.
3. Summary Overview:
The summary provides an at-a-glance breakdown of:
- Total explained and unexplained absences.
- Total Permission to Leave (PTL) requests.
- Total Parent Notes submitted and acknowledged by the school.
This summary helps staff quickly assess the student’s attendance status and identify any unresolved items.
4. Student Attendance Details:
All individual attendance records are displayed under this section, including:
- Absent Notes: Notes submitted to explain a student’s absence.
- Late Notes: Notes detailing when a student arrives late and the reason.
- Permission to Leave (PTL) Notes: Records of PTL requests from parents, indicating when and why a student left school early.
Each record is timestamped and categorized to ensure easy reference and follow-up.
5. Please Checks:
If parents submit a Please Check request (e.g., if they believe the student is marked absent in error), it will be listed in this section. It’s crucial for staff to review and action these requests promptly to ensure accurate attendance records.

6. Notes from Parents:
This section displays any non-attendance-related notes submitted by parents. Examples include notes about dress code exceptions, medical issues, or other relevant updates. These notes are separate from attendance records but are still important for school staff to acknowledge and monitor.
