ATT - Student Attendance Report

Overview

The ‘Student Attendance’ program produces a report of student absentees grouped by student or an Excel file in the DEST file format.

It can be run for an individual student or for a group of students. 

The report can be produced using three different layouts:

  1. Detailed.

  2. Summary.

  3. DEST file format (Australian schools only).

The DEST file format option renders into an Excel file and contains summary absentee information for male/female and indigenous male/female.

Important!

The ‘DEST Student Attendance’ report in this program is no longer valid for government reporting, and has been replaced by the ‘Student Attend - STATS (Aus)’ program. Refer to ‘How to Generate the SchoolsHUB STATS XML’ for information on using the new program.

General and UD Tabs

You can use any combination of fields on the 'General' and 'UD' tab to filter the data produced in the report. A 'Date' must be entered.

To run the report for a single student, enter a 'Student Code'.

To run the report for a group of students leave the 'Student Code' field blank and use the other fields on this tab to select the required student group.

The 'Parent Acknowledgement' dropdown list allows you to filter based on one or more of three potential statuses:

  • No (No parent acknowledgement for this absence record).

  • Yes (An acknowledgement has been entered by a teacher or administrator).

  • PL (An acknowledgement has been entered by a parent through Parent Lounge).

This report can no longer be used for government reporting. Refer to the guide on ‘How to Generate the SchoolsHub STATS XML’ for more information on how to use the new program.
