How to view your homework

Detailed homework information is visible with attachments and weblinks. If your school tracks homework you can see when your teacher has ticked off the completion of Homework tasks or marks if the work has been assessed by your teacher.
You can also tick off whether you have completed the homework.

Messages from your school and your settings can be accessed from this menu.
In the message inbox tap on the message for more detail. Your messages will be organised by date order and titled by areas such as Homework and Behaviour.

How to view your timetable

You are then presented with today's timetable. You can tap or swipe to previous and future days at the top.
How to view your attendance
The attendance information is displayed on the main App page and shows the overall percentage attendance as a chart with details for authorised and unauthorised absence including a count of late marks. Where an unknown mark is displayed this may be due to the school waiting for confirmation for the reason of the absence.
