haven’t I. I agree with you Ross and I am pushing for CASES 21 a=
s
this is what we use currently, but only AM & PM attendance and we need t=

be able to monitor each period. CASES 21 is capable of this, however
convincing my timetabler to swap to CASES 21 which is what we would have to=
do
to record period by period is another thing, hence the reason for my email
yesterday, I am hoping to find a school that does do it. I am
investigating a school in <st1:City w:st=3D"on"><st1:place w:st=3D"on">Bendi=

that I believe use both the period by period attendance recording and the
timetabling, so when I get the info I will forward it you all.<o:p></o:p></s=
