It would be beneficial to mark students out of school for all lessons for a day, without marking them out for AM and PM Registration, when they straddle these compulsory registrations.
This would be useful for times such as Study leave, when lesson attendance is not required, but the boarding students need to be registered AM and PM
To add to this post. We currently mark all pupils in 5th and U6th as study leave, but need to change the mark from an S to a present on days they are in for an exam. Currently there is no way to do this as OOS has a start and end date block and you would need to continually have to set up blocks to do this, and Future absence will only allow you to change to another absent code and also will not allow you to change on the day as the registration is no longer future but present. This causes a huge amount of administration of registers in the exam periods. It would be really good if there was an easier way to do this.
Thank you for your suggestion. We are currently working on enhancements to the Out of School/Future Absence/Registration Manager functionality that we hope will help with this issue. I will post updates here as the project progresses.
