If you are the designated teacher for a register at this time then it will automatically take you to your register. If you need to find another register click on Options
STEP 2 select Show Filters
STEP 3 Select the period you want to register
STEP 4 When you change this you will be told that you are viewing outside of registration time
STEP 5 Select the set you want to register and click Go.
Take the Register
For each girl click on No, Yes or Late.
If the pupil is late or not present then it is encouraged that you enter a note next to the register for that pupil to give School Office a head start in chasing up on the absence. To leave a note simply click on the green plus next to the Late button after marking them as late or not present. A box will appear below where you can enter the note.
If applicable you can also use the All Away and All Present buttons to quickly register all girls at once.
iSAMS will save all progress in the background whilst you work. It is important however when you are finished to make sure that the top left shows "No data currently queued for saving." If not then you need to click the force save button in the top right before closing the window.
Once you have completed the register click on Force Save to manually save the changes.
For those that have access to the registration module, you can use the period view to register girls in custom groups such as by year, boarding house etc... This can be useful during snow days.
Alerting an Absence
If you are marking a pupil as absent and you know that they should be in your lesson or are of a high risk. Please make sure you click the alert button, this will trigger an automated email to School Office who will then chase up the absence.
