📣 Attendance notifications

You can now assign attendance officers in Involve who will be automatically notified when a pupil is marked absent from all non-classroom lessons (e.g. music, clubs, activities) taking place at the same time. These staff will receive notifications via email, push notification, and desktop alert.

Involve also now monitors for consecutive absences in co-curricular lessons. If a pupil is marked absent for two lessons in a row within the same grouping, attendance officers will be notified again.

You also have the option to include the pupil’s form tutor, head of house, or head of year in these notifications, to help ensure the right people are kept in the loop.

This can be toggled in your school settings under the ‘Contacts’ section.
