School Attendance Management
Attendance that's marked once and never re-typed into a register or a report
If a teacher is still marking a paper register and someone in the office is re-typing it into a spreadsheet for monthly reports, MyClassDiary replaces both steps with attendance that's captured digitally and reported automatically.

QR, RFID, or biometric marking
Pick the method that fits your campus — a scanned QR code, an RFID card tap, or a biometric device — and attendance is logged instantly.
Instant parent notification
Parents get a message the moment their child is marked present or absent, instead of finding out at the end of the day or week.
Teacher time saved daily
No paper register to maintain and no end-of-day tally — teachers mark attendance once, and every downstream report updates itself.
Accurate reports, always
Monthly, term, and student-wise attendance reports are generated from the same live records, not reconstructed from paper later.

FAQ
Common questions about school attendance management
Straight answers before you book a demo.
Do we need special hardware to use QR or biometric attendance?
QR attendance works from any smartphone or tablet with a camera. RFID and biometric marking need a compatible reader device, which our team can help you source and set up during onboarding.
How fast do parents get notified about absence?
Notifications go out the moment attendance is marked — typically within seconds — rather than as an end-of-day batch, so parents can act the same morning if needed.
Can we track period-wise attendance for higher classes, not just daily?
Yes. Secondary and senior-secondary sections can use period-wise attendance where each subject period is marked separately, alongside the daily overall record.
What happens to attendance data if a student transfers or leaves mid-year?
Attendance history stays attached to the student's record and is included in any transfer certificate or report generated for them, so nothing is lost.
