If a student will be absent for an extended period, you can set a holiday directly on their profile. This helps keep attendance records accurate and prevents unnecessary follow-ups during the holiday period.
Set a holiday for a student
Go to People > Students.
Open the student’s profile.
Click the More button on the right-hand side.
Select Set holiday from the dropdown menu.
In the pop-up window, enter the start date and end date of the holiday period.
Click Save.
The holiday period will now be recorded in the system.
What happens during a student holiday
