Adding a student to an Internal Exclusion

Students can be enrolled in an internal exclusion by going to Students > Behaviour > internal Exclusions > Daily Attendance.

Click on the relevant internal exclusion session then click the Add Students button.  and select the ‘Add students’ button.

You can also add students from within the Internal Exclusion Session dashboard. Click the +Add button in the top, right corner of the Students table.

Viewing what lessons a student will miss

If a student is enrolled in an internal exclusion, you may need to know which lessons the student is missing that day - especially if you need to contact teachers to request work for them to complete. Or if an internal exclusion is only scheduled for part of the day, you might need to know which lesson to send the student to at the end of the internal exclusion.

Just go to Student > Behaviour > Internal Exclusions. Select the exclusion, then click the More information button.

Clicking on any student’s attendance mark on this page will reveal a chronologically sorted list of sessions that the student is enrolled in that day.

How teachers can tell a student is due to be out of the lesson

If a student is enrolled in an internal exclusion at the same time as a lesson, their teacher will be able to see this from the Lesson Dashboard and in the registers.

On the lesson dashboard

If a student is enrolled in an internal exclusion and they are scheduled to be in a timetabled lesson, the member of staff leading the lesson will be informed via the ‘Lesson Dashboard’ and on the attendance register.

The collapsed status bar informs the member of staff how many students will be missing for that lesson.

The names of the students are revealed when the status bar is expanded.

Further information such as the internal exclusions location, time, lead staff member and most importantly, the student’s attendance mark can be viewed by clicking on the student's name and revealing the slide over.

In Attendance Registers

The times that students are scheduled to be out of lesson are also shown on the attendance registers.

No further information is given so that other students do not see the reasons why the student is out of the lesson.
