Attendance and Compass
Dear Parents/Carers
Thank you for your patience as our College transitions to Compass. It is great to see that so many of you have logged on and are accessing your child’s portal.
When using Compass, the College requests the following:-
Please only add an Attendance Note if your child is absent for the whole day.
The Compass portal allows you to add in Attendance Notes if your child is absent. Before entering the note, please check that you have the correct date selected, as the App defaults to the current day/date and you may wish to add an attendance note for a different day.
Please do not enter any notes in Compass for partial absences (leaving early/arriving late)
If your child is late or they are leaving school early, this MUST be entered into the system by our College Reception staff.
Please do not enter extended leave/holidays into Compass.
Parents/Carers must seek approval from Mr Abernethy in writing outlining the purpose, location and duration of travel. Once approved, it will be entered into Compass by our College Reception Staff. If the correct procedure has not been followed, leave will be recorded as unjustified. Please be aware, in the case of extended leave during the school term, only the first 5 days will be granted as approved leave. The remainder will be recorded as unjustified leave.
We appreciate your co-operation.
Mrs Rita Agostino
Assistant Principal - Pastoral Care
