Extra Curricular

Overview

The ‘Extra Curricular’ menu in Staff Kiosk is the central place to locate the programs that are used to manage your school’s non‑academic programs and activities.

It’s designed to handle the operational and administrative side of things, like:

School sports (teams, fixtures, results, venues, opposition)
Performing arts and co‑curricular groups
Music tuition and scheduled lessons
Other non‑academic achievements, awards and programs

It helps build and maintain a student’s non‑academic profile alongside their academic record.

This menu can be accessed by navigating to the Staff Kiosk Toolbar, and selecting ‘Extra Curricular’.

Similar functionality is also available in TASS.web Student Admin > Extra Curricular. Refer to the information below for details.

Click here for an Administrator Note.

User Security Permissions

Access to the programs within this menu is controlled by the security points in the ‘Extra Curricular’ section of TASS.web System Admin > Users > Portal Security Permissions for Staff Kiosk. Each program has its own separate security point. Refer to the relevant program article for more information or contact your school’s TASS System Administrator for access.
