Pupil clock-in and ID cards

Step by step

1Switch it on

First, in Settings, under Modules, switch on Pupil clock-in and ID cards.

2The rules

Open Pupil clock-in, and the Settings tab. Arriving after eight is late. Parents are told on their phones, free, and an arrival marks the class register. A teacher’s own mark is never overwritten.

3ID cards

In ID cards, choose a class. Every pupil’s card is here, with a code that cannot be forged. Print the whole class on plain card, two cards per row.

4Lost card

If a card is lost, press New card under it. The old card stops working at the gate at once, so a found or borrowed card cannot be used.

5The gate

At the gate, open the Gate tab on a phone or tablet, and choose Arriving. Scan the card with the camera, or with a handheld scanner, which types the code for you.

6Arrived

The pupil’s photo and name fill the screen, so you can check the face against the card. They are clocked in, and their parents get a notification.

7Forgot the card

Forgot the card? Type the admission number and press Enter.

8Leaving

At home time, choose Leaving and scan again. The last scan is the time the pupil left.

9Today

The Today tab shows every class: who has arrived, who was late, who has gone home, and who is not in yet. Open a class to see the names.
