For teachers

Your daily loop, and why some screens show less than you expect. 10 minutes to read once.

Everything else in this manual is written for whoever runs the school. This page is written for you.

Signing in the first time

Your school gives you an email and a password. Sign in at your school's web address, or in the staff app.

Change the password immediately

Staff accounts start on a password your office chose, and it has sat in at least one inbox.

Topbar user menu → Change Password

If the app refuses you on a new phone, that is device binding, not a wrong password — staff accounts lock to one device. Ask your office to reset it.

Taking attendance

Student Information → Student Attendance

Pick your class, section and today's date. Mark everyone Present with the button at the top, then change the few who are not. Add a remark where it matters. Save.

Saving sends messages to parents

An absent mark sends an absent notice. Depending on how your school has set it up, a present mark may message the parent too.

That includes corrections. Changing an Absent to Present later sends a second message — so if you mark the wrong student, expect the parent to hear about both.

You can only see the sections you are assigned to. If the class dropdown is empty, you have no allocation — that is an office job, not a permission you can grant yourself.

Entering marks

Offline Examinations → Enter Marks

Choose the exam, class, section and subject. Type the marks; they save as you go, so a half-finished class is safe.

Your subject list comes from the timetable

Not from what your class studies, and not from being its class teacher. If you have no timetable periods for that section, the subject list is empty and you cannot enter anything.

This is the single most common thing teachers report at exam time. The fix is for the office to put you on the timetable — nothing you can do from your side.

When a subject is finished, submit it. That marks it read-only for you and tells the office you are done. It is not a formality: until you submit, nobody can tell the difference between "still typing" and "not started".

Once an admin locks the marks, nobody can change them without an admin unlocking.

Homework and materials

Study Center — post homework and assignments with due dates, and share syllabus and resources. This is the part parents actually open in the app.

Notices

Communicate → Notice Board — you can post to your own classes only.

Trying to address all staff or the whole school is refused. School-wide announcements go through the office, by design.

Leave

Human Resource → Apply Leave — submit a request; your dashboard shows what is still pending. Approval is somebody else's screen.

Fee follow-up

If your school uses it, you can see outstanding fees for your own classes — enough to make a follow-up call to a parent. You cannot see the school's whole debtor list, and you should not need to.

Your own attendance

Depending on your school: the office marks it, you punch in on the staff app, or you scan at the gate.

If you self-punch, four things can refuse you, and none of them are faults:

RefusalMeaning
Too far from campusYou are outside the allowed radius
Mock location detectedLocation spoofing is blocked
Not your registered deviceYou are on a different phone
Outside the punch windowToo early or too late

What you cannot do, and why

Not available to youWhy
Other teachers' classesYou see only your allocations
School-wide noticesOffice decision
The full fee dues listYou get your own classes only
Editing locked marksAsk an admin to unlock
Deleting your own attendance recordsAsk the office to clear the day

None of these are settings you are missing. They are how the roles are drawn.

When something is not there

Nine times in ten it is one of three things, and all three are fixed by the office:

  1. No class allocation — you are not assigned to that section
  2. No timetable entry — you are assigned, but not timetabled for that subject
  3. A module is off — your school's plan does not include it

Tell your office which of the three it looks like. It saves everyone a round trip.
