Below is the view you will see when you log into your Boarding Staff App on an iOS device. Highlighted in the image are the following areas:

  1. The top menu represents your zones. The far left will show All Students, the following shows students are Signed In/On Grounds, then Signed Out/Off Grounds, Students In-Transit, and those late from returning from their pass / leave.

  2. This is the filtering area. Click here to see the option to filter by house, group, watchlist, gated students, passes, and students late from passes.

  3. This shows how the students are sorted. Click on 'Last Name' to change the sort criteria.

  4. The eye represents which additional field will show on your student's profile card. Click on the eye to make changes to what field shows.

  5. The bottom menu is the same menu you see when logged in on a computer, on the left side of the home board. Click on the schedule to see upcoming student passes, the requests to approve/decline incoming student requests, and the activity section to show a summary of the days activities in the system and to create a post.

Once in a student profile, use the top menu to see the student's details, records (passes, rolls, pastoral notes, gating records), and Parent/Guardian details. Click at the very top right to open the action menu.
