/Break/ 10:30 am - 10:50 am
/Lesson 3/ 10:50 am - 11:40 am
/Lesson 4/ 11:40 am - 12:30 pm
/Registration/ 1:10 pm - 1:20 pm

We are required by law to have the AM and PM registration, currently
teachers are volantarily entering Lesson attendance.
When I printed out attendance sheets for lessons for parents evening for
the teachers that had done lesson attendance, the teachers that had not
done it questioned me why I did not give them there lesson attendance
sheets, when I explained it was because they had not used electronic
lesson attendance, all of a sudden we had in the range of 95% take up of
class registration.
Management are now leaning to making it compulsory in our school.
