In this guide we’ll look at how to use the Fire Drill function in the New Teacher App.
The Teacher App is designed to help Teachers complete their day to day tasks, on the go, quickly and easily and is free to download from the App Store for iPhones or Google Play Store for other devices.
From the Modules screen, click on the Fire icon in the top right hand corner.
This will take you to a Class List, at the top of the Screen you can choose whether you would like to take a Fire Drill Register for a Class or a Tutor Group. You will also see an indicator to the right of the Group Name to show whether the Fire Drill Register has been taken or not.
Click on the Group you would like to take a Register for, you’ll see basic details about the Group across the top of the page, then the number of Students who have been marked as Present within the Fire Drill Register.
You can then mark the Students as Present using the tick boxes to the left of the Student Names. Once you’ve marked all Students as Present, click Submit.
If you try to submit the Fire Drill Register without marking all Students, you will receive the following Warning.
If you click No, Cancel, you will be taken back to the Register to continue marking attendance. If you click Yes, Submit the Register will save and will display as Taken, however you can go back in and update the Register if required.
The Fire Drill Registers will remain available in the Teacher App until Midnight.
