The E-Attendance will be installed with an external card reader which will control the attendance data and updated to the central server. Regular student attendance is crucial to a strong academic performance in school. With the e-Attendance module, each student will be issued with a electronic Smart Card (either Proximity Card, RFID or Biometrics devices). Schools can opt to have the student’s attendance taken electronically or teachers can take school attendance manually. Attendance can be taken by school or by individual classes. This enables the schools to effectively track student attendance throughout the school day.

Parents are encouraged to take an active role in their child’s education and call the school if they are concerned over their child’s attendance at school.
