Small-scale monitoring product is right choice for improving college attendances

Some pupils in Wiltshire who are truanting are being escorted to school by police officers. The force, in partnership with the council and local schools, began the initiative in Amesbury recently. In the first two weeks of the scheme Nigel Roper, head teacher of nearby Stonehenge School, said the number of unexplained absences had dropped significantly. Mr Roper remarked: “The majority of children who have had such a visit [from police officers] don’t need a second one.”

Time and Attendance South West is quickly able to install a simple PC-based clocking system which is the right choice for a school or college to improve attendances. WinTA PC Clock is EU Working Time Directive compliant too, if your organisation wants to implement the system for staff. With many of the features of our entry level WinTA Lite system included in PC Clock, such as the holiday and absence planners, it remains the best product on the market for small-scale time and attendance monitoring.
