All your children.
Without searching.

For each child you see what is different today. You report sick with one button, request leave and see with every grade what it means. On your phone, in one account.

Walk through the day

Mark de Wit is the father of Lotte (4V2) and Eva (3H3). They go to Het Voorbeeld College. All screens show made-up data.

Phone screen of father Mark de Wit with made-up data. For each child it shows what is different today: for Lotte, English in A112 and history is cancelled; for Eva, a 4.9 for maths and a letter with a question. At the bottom a Report sick button.

What is different, per child.
You do not need to read the rest.

Mark has two daughters at the same school. In one account he sees per child only what is different today. A letter with a question he answers straight away.

Built, not yet in use. Today, one line per child with what is different.

Skip the day
  1. For Lotte. English is in a different room and history is cancelled. In words, not only in colour.
  2. For Eva. A new grade: a 4.9 for maths, with an explanation. And a letter from school with a question.
  3. A question, one tap. Is Eva going on the trip? Mark taps ‘Yes’. The school sees the answer straight away.
Phone screen of Mark de Wit with made-up data. For Lotte: English is in A112 and history is cancelled. For Eva: a 4.9 for maths, with an explanation, and a letter about the biology trip on Tuesday 3 November. Mark answers ‘Yes’: Eva is going.

· Parent · Mark, still at the table

Eva is ill.
One button, no phone call.

Eva is not feeling well. Mark reports her sick in the app, even though it is not yet half past eight. Lotte goes to school as usual.

Built, not yet in use. Reporting sick, also for several children at once, with Undo.

  1. Who is ill? Mark ticks Eva. With two children ill, you pick them both in one go.
  2. How long? ‘Until reported better’. He sees straight away which five lessons it covers.
  3. The school knows. Ms Patel, Eva’s mentor, and the administration see it straight away. Made a mistake? Tap ‘Undo’.
Phone screen of Mark de Wit with made-up data. He ticks Eva, not Lotte, and picks ‘Until reported better’. It covers five lessons, from 08:30 to 13:30. Confirmation: Eva was reported sick at 07:51, with an Undo button. Next to it: Ms Patel, Eva’s mentor, and Sanne Vos from the administration see it straight away.

Looking at the timetable.
The ticks belong to your child.

Mark checks how Lotte’s day is going. He sees her timetable, the homework and what she has handed in. Read only: Lotte ticks things off herself.

Built, not yet in use. Your child’s timetable, homework and tests, read only.

  1. Her day. English in A112, history is cancelled. Lotte is free until 12:40.
  2. The homework. Exercises 12 to 18 for Monday. Lotte ticked it off at 11:20. Mark cannot do that.
  3. Handed in. The titration report is in, on time. On Thursday there is the Quiz Indicators.
Phone screen of Mark de Wit with made-up data: Lotte’s timetable on Friday 9 October. English at 10:30 is in A112, history at 11:20 is cancelled. The homework for Monday, exercises 12 to 18, Lotte ticked off at 11:20. Under assignments: the titration report was handed in on time today at 12:15, the biology practical too. On Thursday 15 October, 1st period, there is the Quiz Indicators.

A grade, with an explanation.
Not a bare table.

At 13:40 Mr Bakker showed the grades for the test. Mark gets a message about Lotte’s 5.4. Then he also looks at Eva’s 4.9.

Built, not yet in use. With every grade the topics, the teacher’s comment and what it does to the average.

  1. A new grade. Mark gets a message at the same moment as Lotte. Not earlier, not later.
  2. What it means. A 5.4 for Acids and bases, with Mr Bakker’s comment. The average went from 7.2 to 6.5. A resit is allowed.
  3. Now for Eva. The 4.9 for maths, with what was tested and how her average of 5.8 is calculated.
Phone screen of Mark de Wit with made-up data. A notification: Lotte has a new grade for chemistry. It is a 5.4 for the test Acids and bases, with the topics and Mr Bakker’s comment; her average went from 7.2 to 6.5 and she may resit. Then for Eva: a 4.9 for the maths test Fractions, with Mr Kramer’s comment. Her average went from 6.2 to 5.8: 6.0 plus 6.4 plus 4.9, divided by 3.

· Parent · Mark, at home

A message to the mentor.
You see when it will be read.

Mark would like to talk about Eva’s 4.9. He writes to Ms Patel, her mentor. Even before he sends it, he sees when she will read it.

Built, not yet in use. Messages with the mentor; in the evening, see before sending when it will be read.

  1. To the mentor. Eva is in 3H3, so Ms Patel. Mark does not have to look up who that is.
  2. When it will be read. In the evening it is quiet at school. Ms Patel reads it on Monday from 07:00. Urgent? Call the administration.
  3. Sent. The message is in the conversation. As soon as Ms Patel reads it, Mark sees that.
Phone screen of Mark de Wit with made-up data: the conversation with Ms Patel, Eva’s mentor. This morning she wished Eva a quick recovery and Mark thanked her. Now he writes: Eva got a 4.9 for maths, could we have a quick call about it? Before sending, it says that Ms Patel reads it on Monday from 07:00, after the school’s quiet hours, and that for anything urgent he calls the administration. Then the message shows as sent in the conversation.

Requesting leave.
And seeing how far along it is.

Last night Mark requested leave for Eva, for a wedding in the family. Today the school decided. He reads the decision, with the reasons.

Built, not yet in use. First the rules, then the form and the decision with reasons.

  1. The rules first. What is allowed and what is not, in plain words. Only then the form.
  2. Following the request. Submitted on Thursday at 20:14. Then it was with Mr Mulder, the head of school.
  3. The decision, with reasons. Granted at 14:30. Even with a no, it says why.
Phone screen of Mark de Wit with made-up data. First the rules: leave for an important reason, such as a wedding or a funeral in the family, and holiday leave only if your work makes a holiday during the school holidays impossible. Below that his request for Eva, Thursday 19 and Friday 20 November, for a wedding in the family: submitted on Thursday 8 October at 20:14, then with Mr Mulder, the head of school. Granted at 14:30, with the reason: a wedding in the family is an important circumstance.

Who sees what of your child?
Only those who need it.

U

Only your own children. You never see other students in the class. You see Lotte and Eva separately; you switch with one tap.

The teacher

Only their own students. Mr Bakker teaches Lotte chemistry. He sees nothing of Eva.

Administration

Your sick report and the granted leave, in the absences. That way nobody has to call back.

When your child turns 18, they will decide what you see. That is planned. Anyone who looks at something of your child’s goes into a log. Back to the day of the whole school

Would you like this at your child’s school?

Or show this page to the mentor or the school leaders. You do not have to fill anything in. We would love to hear from schools that want to think along.
