Madrasa attendance is taken per class. Organization Admins can take and review it from Madrasa → Attendance. Assigned teachers can also take it in the Teacher Portal.

Take student attendance#

  1. In NizamOS, open Madrasa → Attendance, then choose Student Attendance.
  2. Pick the class.
  3. Under Take attendance, choose the Date (today or earlier) and select Take attendance.
  4. Mark each student Present, Absent, Late or Excused, and save.

If a session already exists for that date, it opens instead of creating a duplicate. Past sessions are listed under Session history, where you can open and review them.

How the percentage works#

A student's attendance percentage counts Present and Late as attended, out of every marked session. Excused is shown separately. Until anything is marked, NizamOS shows no percentage rather than 0%.

Record progress#

  1. Open the class from Madrasa → Classes.
  2. In Progress, select Record progress.
  3. Choose the Progress area, the Date and an optional Reporting period.
  4. Rate each student: Not Yet, Developing, Meeting Expectations or Exceeding Expectations, with an optional comment.
  5. Save.

Saving again for the same area and date corrects that day's ratings instead of adding duplicates. Progress areas are set up in Madrasa settings → Progress Areas. Ratings show on the student's profile and in the Parent Portal.

Review teacher attendance#

Teachers check in and out of work in the Teacher Portal. To review it:

  1. Open Madrasa → Attendance, then Teacher Attendance.
  2. Search for a teacher to see their check-in and check-out times.
  3. To fix a time, select Correct, change the times, enter a reason, and select Save correction.

Every correction keeps the original times, who changed them, when, and why.

Good to know#

  • A future date can't be used for a new attendance session.
  • If someone else changes a student's mark while a teacher has the Teacher Portal open, the teacher's save keeps that newer mark and tells the teacher.
  • Work check-ins are separate from student attendance.
