Student Check In & Check Out | The Student Self Registration Portal has been enhanced with a new Student Check In / Out facility. This new facility allows students to register their arrival on campus and departure from campus outside the timetabled school hours. Students' Check In / Out status can be viewed on the Staff Kiosk Class Rollcall screen and via a new listing called 'Student Check In / Out List'. Refer to How to Setup the Student Check In / Out Portal on the Knowledge Base for more information. |
