Schooling module
Simplified bulletin settings screen
From now on, all bulletin parameter-setting actions are grouped together on the same screen.
The attendance registers and the Timetable highlight the different routes available.
Students benefiting from an adaptedTimetable(attached to a session in another class/group, or for whom a session without a group has been created) appear on the Attendance register and Organiser.
Sessions without a defined group (e.g. extra lessons given by a teacher to ULIS students) are visible in the personal Timetables of teachers, students and their Legal guardians. The Attendance register can now be viewed and done for Lessons without a defined group.
Absence(s) management by half-day for Primary schools
From now on, school teachers can do the attendance register in one click and enter the student's absence for half a day.Settings and finance module
