Adding non-teaching staff specifically the librarian to the Cover Manager so we can cover her when absent.
Our students who are on reduced timetables go to the library to work. Usually this is supervised by the dedicated librarian but when she is absent, it would be useful to add her absence to the Cover Manager to allocate the staff covering her. She ...
Enable a system that still shows replies received to a message to a parent even after the reply has been opened.

We hold sponsored events to raise money for school - but there is no way of parents being able to just drop any amount of money to the school via the payment system. If tere could be a donate section on the payment tab that would be amazing.
Consistency and Clarity Between Managing Absences and Unavailable Staff
