The absence report will check across classes, courses, enrolments and schools for continuous absence.

Enter the date to which absence has been entered, and also the number of weeks Class is to check back for continuous absence.
Additional filters can be added, although if a single school is selected, Class will still check across all other schools for any additional absence/attendance.

Note:
If a student is attending multiple classes, continuous absence only exists if the student is absent in ALL classes.

Documentation

It is anticipated that letters/documents will need to be sent.

Each student can have documents selected and either sent individually, or in batch (eg. selecting documents for each student first, and then sending all in batch together).

The advantage of Single Processing is that each student is treated separately, and documents can be manually changed before sending and a variety of send methods used, eg. an email to the student, a printed copy via the host family, or an email to the agent.

Batch Processing allows a single document (for each student) to be selected and sent, without the option to change.

Each student has their 'Last Document Sent' shown, giving guidance as to the next document in the process, although double-clicking the row will bring up the enrolment documents folder, giving a complete history. The appropriate document is selected for either processing individually or in batch.

The document below is a sample showing how Class could produce a letter giving details of absence (unauthorised or both), covering a number of days:

Note on Merge Fields for Quick Reports:
Absence merge fields are available for use in Quick Reports, although it is expected that most reporting will be done via the report provided, as Quick Reports will not intelligently look across schools and enrolments for related absence.
