Zunia’s School Student Attendance Management Software offers a user-friendly solution for marking and managing the student attendance roll. This streamlined system also facilitates absence submissions via the school app and generates compliance reports for easy monitoring and communication.

How does it work?

Zunia’s School Student Attendance Management Software operates seamlessly across various devices, allowing teachers to efficiently mark attendance using their computers, tablets, or mobile devices. The software also empowers a school attendance officer to address daily absences, both approved and unapproved, ensuring timely resolution. Furthermore, the attendance officer gains the capability to manage past and upcoming attendance records, enhancing the school’s tracking and planning capabilities.

Parents play an active role in the process, with the ability to notify the school of their child’s current or anticipated absence. This two-way communication is facilitated by the Zunia school app which strengthens the school-parent relationship. Notably, Zunia’s attendance management system captures attendance data with minute-by-minute precision, providing accurate and up-to-date insights that contribute to effective decision-making and comprehensive record-keeping.
