What Features are in the Staff Orbit App?
The Staff Orbit App aims to improve communication and connectivity within your staff community with the help of user-friendly tools, making their lives easier and enhancing the overall efficiency of school operations.
Extra Curricular Hub - The Extra Curricular Hub provides staff with a consolidated look at all of their extra curricular activities, fixtures, and sessions while also including information about the students participating in the relevant activities. Staff can conveniently manage different teams and levels, and edit or cancel sessions as needed.
Events & Diaries - Staff can stay updated on both upcoming and past events with a comprehensive view of all event details, including the list of invited and accepted attendees, as well as the options chosen by each student. Staff will also be able to access different calendar feeds, daily notices, and their personal diary.
Rollcall & Timetable - Staff and substitute teachers can mark school attendance, access substitute task information, and view vital student details within Rollcall, in a summary or detailed view. Staff can also mark custom rolls for extra curricular, events and more. Teachers can access a snapshot of their daily schedule and other teachers timetables, where permitted, allowing them to monitor their whereabouts.
Connectivity - Stay up to date and access a complete notification history, including automated alerts and messages from the Staff Portal. Empower staff to send notifications to classes, events, and extra curricular groups, and easily check notifications sent to parents and students.
Your Students - Staff members have a powerful tool for quick access to Student Profiles, including recent searches with photos. The profiles offer vital details like Notes, Medical Info, Status, Alerts, eDiaries, and Parent Contacts. The ‘Currently With’ functionality allows staff to view the students they should be with while also providing them with a list of relevant alerts.
Payroll & HR - Staff can easily submit and update leave applications on the go and approvers can review and process applications. Staff also have quick and easy access to their own information as well as the details of their colleagues, making it effortless for them to connect and communicate.
