Late Arrivals and Early Departures

Please note - Late Arrivals and Early Departures must not  be entered on Compass into the future - so if your child has an upcoming appointment and you will be collecting them during the day please do not enter this on Compass until you are at the school office collecting your child.

Not only does this update their class roll to reflect the time they left school, but it is also beneficial for duty of care and emergency management, as Compass will know that the student has departed the school for the rest of the day or it will display when the child is signed back in at the office if returning. This will then display the day and time clearly on the Daily Summary and Emergency Report.

Compass is a tool to accurately track your child's attendance - if you put the appointment absence in and then delayed for whatever reason, we are not able to accurately report when your child leaves and returns to school grounds. 

If you would like to let your teacher know that your child will be late the next day due to an appointment you can, but please do not enter it into Compass until you are at the office signing your child out.
