This article will explain how to record that a student has received a penalty notice (usually from the local council) and how to run a report to see which students are at risk of getting a fine.
Recording a fine
1. Go to the Students Profile and click the Attendance tab.
2. Click the Cog next to Attendance Penalty Notices
3. Click Add New
4. Fill in the data
5. Click Add New
Report to find students who are at risk of a fine
Go to Reporting > Reports > Attendance > Attendance Penalty Notice Eligibility, set the end date (this will default to todays date) and click Choose.
This report will then show you the students who have 10 or more unauthorised absences within the 10 week period. It's worth noting this number is the number of sessions (AM and PM) and not the number of days.
