We have children that attend nursery for AM or PM sessions, however they are marked on the register as full time students. To avoid unnecessary absences, I feel a function to select the children for the correct registration period would be helpful.

When a pupil is marked in as late with code U (following government guidelines that this is to be treated as an absence) the A shows on the fire register, even though they are in school. As you can imagine this could cause major issues due to us n...

We find it almost impossible to use Query Builder if we need to include Personal Tutor in the parameters as it lists the user code of the tutor records rather than their name. This makes some tasks far more time-consuming and fiddly than needed. T...
