How can I set different school start and end times for a specific year group?
Sentral Attendance supports several different and flexible school times and timetable setups, both school wide and for cohort levels.
To add a new school time rule:
1. Select the Attendance module.
2. Select Setup and choose Attendance Setup.
3. Select Setup in the left menu and School Times.
4. Select Add New Rule.
5. Enter a name for the rule.
6. Enter the school start and end times for the rule to match against.
7. Select the days of the week for the rule to match against.
8. Specify Days and Years for the rule to match against.
9. Specify the priority order for the rule against the available list of rules.
The rules will be tested in descending order, matching against the day of the week and student year group. The first match determines the school times for the student on that day. Otherwise, the next rule will be tested until the Default Times are reached which will always match.
10. Select Save.
The rule is listed at the bottom of the screen.
