– giving timely clues for diagnosis, warnings of outbreaks and options for preventative action. For schools, we provide a free online service which greatly streamlines daily handling of pupil absence, without sacrificing personal contact with parents where it’s needed. It includes access for all school staff, and can be set up in minutes. Our optional paid-for package goes even further to help schools maximise the attendance – and ultimately therefore the achievement – of all pupils. It saves hours of staff time each day by eliminating repetitive admin tasks, and enables this to be put to best use by providing the live information, alerts and tools that staff need to take action.
