{{permissions|Automation|Access automation control|Setup automation jobs}}

This page shows a list of the jobs that the automation module performs. Once you have automation installed on your IIS server you should decide which jobs are going to run, and at what day and time they should run. In PARS Connect this page is accessed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[System management]] > [[Automation]]''' 

=The Automation Module=

The [[Automation Module]] can be set to run various different jobs as detailed below. To access the Automation job list, from the PARS Connect Main menu, click "System management" then "Automation". At the top of this screen, click the "Jobs" tab. 

[[Image:newauto01.jpg|1000px]] 

Each job has its own settings that are accessed by highlighting the name of the job then clicking "Job Properties". 

Some jobs have parameters that need to be configured (see below) and all have a "Cycle" (the days of the week on which the job runs) and a time when they are set to run. Make sure that the time and cycle for each job does not clash with a time when the server is likely to be busy/unavailable (e.g. during a backup/defrag etc). 

The [[Automation Module]] can also be set to regularly run any report from PARS and have it [[Email|emailed]] or printed. For example, a report job could be set up to email the Deputy Headmaster every Monday morning with a list of all the pupils with one or more unexplained absences for the past week. See [[Job list#Report Jobs|section 3]] below to find out how to do this. 

=The Automation Module's Jobs=

==Continuous jobs==

===Check for, and send outstanding batch SMS messages===

This job has multiple purposes:
#Sends purposely delayed SMS messages. If you click the magnifying glass button, you can delete messages from the queue before they are sent. 
#Collects replies to SMS messages sent from PARS and adds the replies to the student's contact log.
#Sends the SMS replies to school email addresses. There are options to send the email to the member of staff who sent the original SMS and/or to send the email to a central email address. These options will be overruled if an email address is specified on the [[configure SMS]] page. 

===Pupil scan===
This job scans for marks entered by pupils, if you are using a biometric system where pupils can sign in to their lessons or sessions using either a swipe card or finger print scanner. Once pupils have signed in, the automation job will give the pupils their attendance marks. 

See the [[pupil scan]] page for more information about configuring biometric systems. 

==System jobs==

===Deferred behaviour mirroring===
This job will copy any behaviour incidents from PARS to SIMS in an overnight synchronisation, and will only take effect if you have the following [[Behaviour preferences|behavioural preference]] active: 

''Defer SIMS writing to Automation'' 

This is useful as saving incidents to SIMS increases the amount of time taken to save a behaviour incident. Doing this job late at night means that staff are not inconvenienced by this increased saving time. 

===Refresh School Info===
This job is used to process and fill a data table used to generate graphs on the School Information screen. If you are also running any "Bonus behaviour points" jobs, make sure this job runs after them. 

===Remove mark owners===
This job deletes the ownership record of a mark (i.e. who last altered it) after X number of days (set in the job properties). This stops the mark ownership table from becoming too large and also prevents any marks older than X number of days from being edited by a user via a register (if the "Allow changes to existing marks" [[Registration preferences#Operational preferences|preference]] is set). The marks can always be edited via [[Attendance view]] if necessary. 

===Clear sync table===
When reports are run, copies are sent to the database. This job will remove those copies - it is recommended that this job runs to improve performance. 

===Rule based behaviours===
Every time this job runs, it will generate all active rules, from the [[Rule based behaviours]] screen. 
Rule based behaviours will automatically award behaviour incidents to pupils whenever they hit certain criteria, such as 3x late or 0 demerits, in a date range you choose e.g. a week. 

===Detention reminder notices===
Bulk creates detention reminder notices. 

===Create/update is gifted or SEN groups===
Creates and maintains a [[group manager#PARS Medical, Bus route, Consent, Gifted, SEN & Pupil premium groups|PARS special group]] for Gifted and Talented students, regardless of subject area. Also creates separate groups for each of the SEN statuses. 

===Create Pupil Premium, FSM6, EAL, Service child and Young Carers groups===
Creates and maintains [[group manager#PARS Medical, Bus route, Consent, Gifted, SEN & Pupil premium groups|PARS special group]] for for the listed groups of students. 

===Temporary Group Housekeeping===
[[Image:Temporary_groups.jpg|thumb|A list of PARS temporary groups obtained from [[group manager]]]]
Every time a report is run where a selection of pupils is made (rather than the selection of a whole group), a temporary group is created in the database. The pupils are added to the group then analysis is performed. Once the report has been finished with and closed, the temporary group remains. Over time in a busy school, hundreds of used groups will be left in the database which could eventually lead to performance issues. 
This job will find all of the temporary groups each day and delete them. Like the "Refresh All years" job, it cannot be unscheduled but can be set to run at a different time. 
Additionally, this job will delete any staff leavers from PARS notice recipient groups. 

===Create bus route groups===
Creates and maintains [[group manager#PARS Medical, Bus route, Consent, Gifted, SEN & Pupil premium groups|PARS special groups]] for Bus Routes. 

===Create consent groups===
Creates and maintains [[group manager#PARS Medical, Bus route, Consent, Gifted, SEN & Pupil premium groups|PARS special groups]] for pupils with the various SIMS consents. 

===Clear Expired Notices===
When a [[Homepage#Notices|notice]] is created, an expiry date can be set by the user. By default this is set to "Never". 
When this job runs it will delete all notices that have been created that have an expiry date before today's date. If [[Homepage#Notices|notices]] are used in PARS then this job should be regularly run to ensure only relevant notices are available to users. 

===Update medical groups===
Creates and maintains [[group manager#PARS Medical, Bus route, Consent, Gifted, SEN & Pupil premium groups|PARS special groups]] for pupils with Medical Conditions. 

===Refresh All Years===
This is by far the most important job that the Automation module runs. The All Years group can become corrupt leading to a range of problems in PARS. This job will recreate the All Years group every night to ensure this doesn't happen. The job can not be turned off but the time when it runs may be altered. 

==Report Jobs==
Customised report jobs can be set up using the "Automate" button at the top of most reports. Before setting up an automated report, ensure that your PARS [[Email]] system is set up and working. 

Please see our training guide on report usage for more details:

Behaviour preferences

2024-07-12T09:20:38Z

Abi: /* Miscellaneous */

{{permissions|Behaviour|Access ___ behaviour incidents|Configure behaviour schemes}}

Behaviour preferences will apply to all users in PARS. Once you have made any changes to behaviour preferences, you should log out of PARS and back in again for them to take effect. 

Behaviour preferences can be accessed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Behaviour]] > Configure > Behaviour preferences''' 

=Setup=

==Titles==

Positive, negative and neutral behaviour incidents can all be given alternative names to match the terminology you use. Some schools have "Credit(s) and Sanction(s)" or "Red card(s) and Green card(s)" as part of their behaviour policy. These words will be used in place of Merit(s) and Demerit(s) in PARS.

There are two fields per behaviour type, one for singular use and one for plural.

[[Image:titles1.jpeg]]

==Attendance based behaviour==

These preferences take effect when adding a behaviour incident to multiple pupils via a [[Register]]. To do this, click on the merit or demerit [[Register#What do the columns on the register screen mean?|column header]] to add a behaviour incident for multiple pupils.

[[Image:attendancebased.jpg]]

'''Bulk student selection begins blank''' 
Initially no students will be selected. 

'''Bulk student selection based on physical Register attendance''' 
All pupils who are physically present will be selected. 

'''Bulk student selection based on statistical Register attendance''' 
All pupils who are statistically present will be selected. 

'''Count L-code as absent''' 
When selecting pupils based on statistical attendance (see previous preference), do late pupils count as present or absent?

 

==SIMS link==
Behaviour incidents can be written back to your SIMS database if required, or they can be stored in PARS only. Please note that writing an incident back to SIMS takes ~2 seconds whereas writing a behaviour incident back to PARS only takes ~0.1 seconds. When saving large numbers of incidents, this can have noticeable effect on performance.

[[Image:SIMSlink2.1.jpg]]

 

'''Create a SIMS Attainment/Behaviour for initial Merit/Demerit''' 
This enables PARS to write behaviour incidents back to SIMS. You must choose more settings below. 

'''Send Merits / Send Demerits''' 
Define whether to send positive, negative or all incidents. If neither are ticked, no incidents will be copied to SIMS. 

'''Hide Behaviour details from comments when SIMS match found''' 
The Ground and Outcome of incidents copied to SIMS will be stored in the comments section, unless there are Types and Outcomes in SIMS that exactly match the names of the Ground and Outcome in PARS. If this option is ticked then PARS will attempt to save using the appropriate Type and Outcome in SIMS, instead of recording the details as a comment. 

'''Defer SIMS writing to automation''' 
Saving behaviour incidents back to SIMS will not happen when the user saves a behaviour incident, but will be done in bulk overnight by the [[Automation]] module. This is useful because it reduces the amount of time needed to save [[Behaviour]] incidents for staff. 

'''Default status for SIMS behaviour''' 
Behaviour incidents in SIMS have a status of either "Resolved" or "Unresolved". The status selected in this preference will be used for all behaviour incidents written from PARS back to SIMS. 

==Comment entry rules==

[[Image:commententryrules.jpg|left]]

'''Require ground comment''' 
Forces the user to input a ground comment when adding a behaviour incident 
'''Require outcome comment''' 
Forces the user to input an outcome comment when adding a behaviour incident 
'''Require support comment''' 
Forces the user to input a support comment when adding a behaviour incident 

''We do not advise that you use these three settings, as they force staff members to enter a comment every single time they try to add a behaviour incident. This can make the system feel clunky and onerous. Instead, certain Grounds and Outcomes (usually the more serious ones) can force users to enter comments.''

 

'''Check Spelling?''' 
This will give an option to spell check any ground and outcome comments when saving a behaviour incident. 
'''Merit comment not required''' 
If any of the 'require ground/outcome/support comment' preferences are enabled then this will override the rule for a Merit incident - therefore comments for Merit incidents will not be required. 
'''Demerit comment not required''' 
As above - comments for Demerit incidents will not be required. 
'''Neutral comment not required''' 
As above - comments for Neutral incidents will not be required. 
'''Cash-in comment not required''' 
As above - comments for Cash-in incidents will not be required. 

==Miscellaneous==

[[Image:Miscbehaviourpreferences.png]]

'''Warn on failed referrals''' 
If a staff type is selected as a referral and there is no corresponding staff member to send the referral to, alert the user when they save the behaviour incident. A typical example is referring incidents to Form Tutors and Form Supervisors; not every form may have a supervisor. 

'''Default to demerit''' 
A demerit is the default selection whenever a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident is recorded]], if unticked a merit is the default selection. 

'''Notify the originator when an incident is edited''' 
This will send a [[Homepage#Notices|Notice]] to the member of staff who initially recorded a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident]] whenever that incident is edited. 

'''House points are ON by default''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, the tick box to also issue [[House points]] will automatically be ticked. There is a [[Permissions| permission]] that affects whether or not users can tick/untick this box themselves. 

'''Maximum points per incident (+/-)''' 
Limit the maximum number of merit/demerit points that can be added at one time. Enter the absolute value for the maximum number of points. 

'''Cancel email/SMS''' 
If a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident]] is referred to members of staff, then a message can automatically be sent to them if that behaviour incident is deleted. PARS will use the same method of communication (SMS or Email) to contact the staff member as was originally used when referring the incident to them. 

'''Include grounds comment on referral messages to parents''' 
When behaviour referrals are sent to parents, should the comments written by staff be included in the email sent to the parent? 

'''Use legal names for students in referral messages''' 
This will use the student's legal name in referral messages to parents regardless of any other legal/chosen name preferences set elsewhere. 

'''Add details of behaviours when selecting SMS alerts''' 
When behaviour referrals are sent to parents via SMS, should the SMS contain additional details of the incident, such as the location and comments? Be wary that this will increase the length of the SMS. 

'''Hide default message when sending behaviour slips to parents''' 
Behaviour slips, when automatically sent to parents as a referral, include default text at the top detailing basic information such as the type and outcome of the incident. This preference can be used to hide the default message and instead only show your slip design. 

==Selection defaults for categories==

[[Image:categoryprefs3.jpg]]

'''Hide "All Grounds Category"''' 
This hides the "All Grounds" category, which is a behaviour category that contains every single ground. 

'''Do not use default category''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, by default no category will selected. Staff members will always need to choose a category when adding a behaviour incident. 

'''Default merit category''' 
If "Do not use default category" is not selected, the category chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a merit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

'''Default demerit category''' 
If "Do not use default category" is not selected, the category chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a demerit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

'''Default neutral category''' 
If "Do not use default category" is not selected, the category chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a neutral behaviour incident is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

==Selection defaults for outcomes==

[[Image:outcomeprefs1.jpg]]

'''Hide "No Outcome Decided"''' 
This hides the "No Outcome Decided" outcome, meaning staff must choose one of the outcomes you have configured. 

'''Do not use default outcome''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, by default no outcome will selected. Staff members will always need to choose an outcome when adding a behaviour incident. 

'''Default merit outcome''' 
If "Do not use default outcome" is not selected, the outcome chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a merit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

'''Default demerit outcome''' 
If "Do not use default outcome" is not selected, the outcome chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a demerit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

=Entry rules=

[[Image:entryrules01.jpg]] 

Use these options to limit the number and type of behaviour incidents that can be [[Add a behaviour incident|recorded]] in each lesson.
First tick the "Limit per lesson" tickbox then choose one of the following:

Set the "Amount" (X) then choose:

'''X per student''' 
X merits or demerits of any type can be added to each pupil in each lesson. 

'''X per ground per issuer''' 
X of each type of ground can be awarded in each lesson, per member of staff. 

'''X per category per issuer''' 
X of each type of category can be awarded in each lesson, per member of staff. 

'''X per issuer''' 
X incidents can be issued per staff member in each lesson. 

'''Specific number incidents per ground per issuer'''* 
Each ground has a specific number of times it can be used in each lesson. This limit applies to the whole class and each teacher gets their own 'allowance'. 

'''Specific number incidents per ground per issuer per student'''* 
Each ground has a specific number of times it can be used in each lesson. This limit applies separately to each pupil and each teacher gets their own 'allowance'. 

''* The last two rules do not use the "Limit per lesson" setting from the top of the page, instead using a separate limit for each ground. When you select either of these settings you will be able to set limits on the number of times each ground can be used.'' 

'''Allow override''' 
This will warn the user when one of these rules are being broken but will still allow the merit/demerit to be saved.

'''Notify the originator when an incident is edited''' 
This will send a [[Homepage#Notices|Notice]] to the member of staff who initially recorded a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident]] whenever that incident is edited. 

'''House points are ON by default''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, the tick box to also issue [[House points]] will automatically be ticked. There is a [[Permissions| permission]] that affects whether or not users can tick/untick this box themselves. 

'''Maximum points per incident (+/-)''' 
Limit the maximum number of merit/demerit points that can be added at one time. Enter the absolute value for the maximum number of points. 

'''Cancel email/SMS''' 
If a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident]] is referred to members of staff, then a message can automatically be sent to them if that behaviour incident is deleted. PARS will use the same method of communication (SMS or Email) to contact the staff member as was originally used when referring the incident to them. 

'''Include grounds comment on referral messages to parents''' 
When behaviour referrals are sent to parents, should the comments written by staff be included in the email sent to the parent? 

'''Use legal names for students in referral messages''' 
This will use the student's legal name in referral messages to parents regardless of any other legal/chosen name preferences set elsewhere. 

'''Add details of behaviours when selecting SMS alerts''' 
When behaviour referrals are sent to parents via SMS, should the SMS contain additional details of the incident, such as the location and comments? Be wary that this will increase the length of the SMS. 

'''Hide default message when sending behaviour slips to parents''' 
Behaviour slips, when automatically sent to parents as a referral, include default text at the top detailing basic information such as the type and outcome of the incident. This preference can be used to hide the default message and instead only show your slip design. 

==Selection defaults for categories==

[[Image:categoryprefs3.jpg]]

'''Hide "All Grounds Category"''' 
This hides the "All Grounds" category, which is a behaviour category that contains every single ground. 

'''Do not use default category''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, by default no category will selected. Staff members will always need to choose a category when adding a behaviour incident. 

'''Default merit category''' 
If "Do not use default category" is not selected, the category chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a merit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

'''Default demerit category''' 
If "Do not use default category" is not selected, the category chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a demerit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

'''Default neutral category''' 
If "Do not use default category" is not selected, the category chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a neutral behaviour incident is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

==Selection defaults for outcomes==

[[Image:outcomeprefs1.jpg]]

'''Hide "No Outcome Decided"''' 
This hides the "No Outcome Decided" outcome, meaning staff must choose one of the outcomes you have configured. 

'''Do not use default outcome''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, by default no outcome will selected. Staff members will always need to choose an outcome when adding a behaviour incident. 

'''Default merit outcome''' 
If "Do not use default outcome" is not selected, the outcome chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a merit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

'''Default demerit outcome''' 
If "Do not use default outcome" is not selected, the outcome chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a demerit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

=Entry rules=

[[Image:entryrules01.jpg]] 

Use these options to limit the number and type of behaviour incidents that can be [[Add a behaviour incident|recorded]] in each lesson.
First tick the "Limit per lesson" tickbox then choose one of the following:

Set the "Amount" (X) then choose:

'''X per student''' 
X merits or demerits of any type can be added to each pupil in each lesson. 

'''X per ground per issuer''' 
X of each type of ground can be awarded in each lesson, per member of staff. 

'''X per category per issuer''' 
X of each type of category can be awarded in each lesson, per member of staff. 

'''X per issuer''' 
X incidents can be issued per staff member in each lesson. 

'''Specific number incidents per ground per issuer'''* 
Each ground has a specific number of times it can be used in each lesson. This limit applies to the whole class and each teacher gets their own 'allowance'. 

'''Specific number incidents per ground per issuer per student'''* 
Each ground has a specific number of times it can be used in each lesson. This limit applies separately to each pupil and each teacher gets their own 'allowance'. 

''* The last two rules do not use the "Limit per lesson" setting from the top of the page, instead using a separate limit for each ground. When you select either of these settings you will be able to set limits on the number of times each ground can be used.'' 

'''Allow override''' 
This will warn the user when one of these rules are being broken but will still allow the merit/demerit to be saved.

Behaviour preferences

2024-07-12T09:13:29Z

Abi: /* Miscellaneous */

{{permissions|Behaviour|Access ___ behaviour incidents|Configure behaviour schemes}}

Behaviour preferences will apply to all users in PARS. Once you have made any changes to behaviour preferences, you should log out of PARS and back in again for them to take effect. 

Behaviour preferences can be accessed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Behaviour]] > Configure > Behaviour preferences''' 

=Setup=

==Titles==

Positive, negative and neutral behaviour incidents can all be given alternative names to match the terminology you use. Some schools have "Credit(s) and Sanction(s)" or "Red card(s) and Green card(s)" as part of their behaviour policy. These words will be used in place of Merit(s) and Demerit(s) in PARS.

There are two fields per behaviour type, one for singular use and one for plural.

[[Image:titles1.jpeg]]

==Attendance based behaviour==

These preferences take effect when adding a behaviour incident to multiple pupils via a [[Register]]. To do this, click on the merit or demerit [[Register#What do the columns on the register screen mean?|column header]] to add a behaviour incident for multiple pupils.

[[Image:attendancebased.jpg]]

'''Bulk student selection begins blank''' 
Initially no students will be selected. 

'''Bulk student selection based on physical Register attendance''' 
All pupils who are physically present will be selected. 

'''Bulk student selection based on statistical Register attendance''' 
All pupils who are statistically present will be selected. 

'''Count L-code as absent''' 
When selecting pupils based on statistical attendance (see previous preference), do late pupils count as present or absent?

 

==SIMS link==
Behaviour incidents can be written back to your SIMS database if required, or they can be stored in PARS only. Please note that writing an incident back to SIMS takes ~2 seconds whereas writing a behaviour incident back to PARS only takes ~0.1 seconds. When saving large numbers of incidents, this can have noticeable effect on performance.

[[Image:SIMSlink2.1.jpg]]

 

'''Create a SIMS Attainment/Behaviour for initial Merit/Demerit''' 
This enables PARS to write behaviour incidents back to SIMS. You must choose more settings below. 

'''Send Merits / Send Demerits''' 
Define whether to send positive, negative or all incidents. If neither are ticked, no incidents will be copied to SIMS. 

'''Hide Behaviour details from comments when SIMS match found''' 
The Ground and Outcome of incidents copied to SIMS will be stored in the comments section, unless there are Types and Outcomes in SIMS that exactly match the names of the Ground and Outcome in PARS. If this option is ticked then PARS will attempt to save using the appropriate Type and Outcome in SIMS, instead of recording the details as a comment. 

'''Defer SIMS writing to automation''' 
Saving behaviour incidents back to SIMS will not happen when the user saves a behaviour incident, but will be done in bulk overnight by the [[Automation]] module. This is useful because it reduces the amount of time needed to save [[Behaviour]] incidents for staff. 

'''Default status for SIMS behaviour''' 
Behaviour incidents in SIMS have a status of either "Resolved" or "Unresolved". The status selected in this preference will be used for all behaviour incidents written from PARS back to SIMS. 

==Comment entry rules==

[[Image:commententryrules.jpg|left]]

'''Require ground comment''' 
Forces the user to input a ground comment when adding a behaviour incident 
'''Require outcome comment''' 
Forces the user to input an outcome comment when adding a behaviour incident 
'''Require support comment''' 
Forces the user to input a support comment when adding a behaviour incident 

''We do not advise that you use these three settings, as they force staff members to enter a comment every single time they try to add a behaviour incident. This can make the system feel clunky and onerous. Instead, certain Grounds and Outcomes (usually the more serious ones) can force users to enter comments.''

 

'''Check Spelling?''' 
This will give an option to spell check any ground and outcome comments when saving a behaviour incident. 
'''Merit comment not required''' 
If any of the 'require ground/outcome/support comment' preferences are enabled then this will override the rule for a Merit incident - therefore comments for Merit incidents will not be required. 
'''Demerit comment not required''' 
As above - comments for Demerit incidents will not be required. 
'''Neutral comment not required''' 
As above - comments for Neutral incidents will not be required. 
'''Cash-in comment not required''' 
As above - comments for Cash-in incidents will not be required. 

==Miscellaneous==

[[Image:miscprefs.jpg]]

'''Warn on failed referrals''' 
If a staff type is selected as a referral and there is no corresponding staff member to send the referral to, alert the user when they save the behaviour incident. A typical example is referring incidents to Form Tutors and Form Supervisors; not every form may have a supervisor. 

'''Default to demerit''' 
A demerit is the default selection whenever a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident is recorded]], if unticked a merit is the default selection. 

'''Notify the originator when an incident is edited''' 
This will send a [[Homepage#Notices|Notice]] to the member of staff who initially recorded a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident]] whenever that incident is edited. 

'''House points are ON by default''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, the tick box to also issue [[House points]] will automatically be ticked. There is a [[Permissions| permission]] that affects whether or not users can tick/untick this box themselves. 

'''Maximum points per incident (+/-)''' 
Limit the maximum number of merit/demerit points that can be added at one time. Enter the absolute value for the maximum number of points. 

'''Cancel email/SMS''' 
If a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident]] is referred to members of staff, then a message can automatically be sent to them if that behaviour incident is deleted. PARS will use the same method of communication (SMS or Email) to contact the staff member as was originally used when referring the incident to them. 

'''Include grounds comment on referral messages to parents''' 
When behaviour referrals are sent to parents, should the comments written by staff be included in the email sent to the parent? 

'''Use legal names for students in referral messages''' 
This will use the student's legal name in referral messages to parents regardless of any other legal/chosen name preferences set elsewhere. 

'''Add details of behaviours when selecting SMS alerts''' 
When behaviour referrals are sent to parents via SMS, should the SMS contain additional details of the incident, such as the location and comments? Be wary that this will increase the length of the SMS. 

'''Hide default message when sending behaviour slips to parents''' 
Behaviour slips, when automatically sent to parents as a referral, include default text at the top detailing basic information such as the type and outcome of the incident. This preference can be used to hide the default message and instead only show your slip design.

[http://www.tascsoftware.co.uk/wiki/PARS/files/Key%20indicator%20template.pdf How to configure Key Indicators in Connect] 

This page is accessed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Grading]] > Configure > Key Indicators ''' 

=Indicators=

A Key Indicator template is a template that instructs PARS to use certain elements when running an analysis. This means you can make comparisons such as Target vs Actual or Effort vs Attainment. The Key Indicator template is colour coded to help you diagnose any issues. 

Each cell tells you which grade elements are going to be used for analysis. Your year 7 pupils might use KS3 Actuals vs KS3 Targets, while year 11 use KS4 Actuals vs KS4 Targets - these would be different grading elements. You may also have different elements for each subject (this is typical when linking to SIMS Assessment manager).

=Configuration=

==Subject classification==

This area of the key indicators page allows you to specify which of your subjects fall into the various 'buckets' for Attainment 8. In each column, tick the subjects that should be counted as English, Maths, Humanities, etc. 

The HV column is used to mark the subjects that are allowed to count in the three 'Open' buckets. Government guidelines say "In the open group of subjects, any GCSE can count, or any of the high-value, approved vocational and academic qualifications. The double column is used to identify subjects which count as double qualifications '''other than English and Maths'''. 

[[Image:subjectstab02.jpg]] 

==Element instances==

Element instances allow you to organise the schedules given to your PARS Student Review Elements. For example, you might organise all schedules that finish in January into a "Spring" grouping. Likewise all schedules ending in July might be "Summer". 

Once the schedules are organised, you can setup Key Indicator templates to begin running analyses on your classes, subjects and years.

Configure alerts

2023-02-10T15:06:46Z

Abi: /* Timespan */

{{permissions|Behaviour|Access ___ behaviour incidents|Allow user to access the configure alerts screen}}

You can notify staff of behaviour information as soon as it happens using PARS. Behaviour alerts are used to trigger a [[Homepage#Notices|notice]] to one or more members of staff whenever certain behaviours are recorded for pupils. If you need another staff member to action a behaviour incident instead of just knowing about it, then you should use [[behaviour referrals]] not behaviour alerts. 

This page is accessed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Behaviour]] > Configure > Configure alerts''' 

==The configure alerts page==

The configure alerts page will show you all of the alerts that you currently have configured, including information about the recipients, the message that will be sent and the triggers for the alert. 

[[Image:confalerts01.jpg]] 

==Adding and editing alerts==

To create a new alert, click the "Add" button from the top toolbar. You can also click "Edit" to amend an existing alert - the process for both of these functions is the same. After you click either button, the window below will open. There are three tabs in the window: Recipients, Triggers and Timespan. 

===Recipients===

[[Image:confalerts004.jpg]] 

First you should choose the recipients of your alert - do this by clicking the drop-down to see a list of available staff. If you want to add a specific member of staff then choose "Select a staff member". Otherwise, select one of the 'staff types', e.g. Form tutor, Head of Year. If you choose a staff type then when a pupil triggers the alert, a [[Homepage#Notices|notice]] will be sent to the correct staff member for that pupil i.e. a pupil in year 9 would trigger an alert being sent to the Head of Year 9. 

Once you have selected your recipient, click "Add". You can add multiple recipients this way if you wish. There is also a tickbox at the bottom of the window that allows you to specify if the notice should pop-up on the recipients screen when they receive it. This is generally not recommended when teaching staff are recipients, as they may have their register on the whiteboard. The behaviour alert would then pop-up in front of their class. 

===Triggers===

On the triggers tab you need to select the behaviour incidents that will trigger an alert. You have a list of grounds on the left and a list of outcomes on the right. Tick all of the grounds and outcomes that you would like to trigger an alert. If you select both grounds and outcomes, then an alert will only be triggered if a behaviour incident is recorded with one of the grounds you selected and one of the outcomes at the same time. 

[[Image:confalerts03.jpg]] 

===Timespan===

Finally you should select the timespan for your alert. This tab defines how often the pupils must be rewarded/reprimanded in order for an alert to be sent. 

[[Image:confalerts04.1.jpg]] 

'''Send a message every time''' 
This is the number of behaviour incidents a pupil must receive to trigger the alert. For example, you might want the form tutor to be notified if a pupil in their form receives 10 positive incidents in a week, so you would enter 10 here. 

'''In the time period''' 
This is the amount of times a pupil has to receive the number of behaviour incidents set in the option above, in order to trigger the alert. For example - you want an alert to be sent every time 10 incidents are recorded. Is it 10 in a week? Or a month? Or the whole year? 

'''In the same subject''' 
If this option is selected then the alert will only trigger when the pupil has accumulated the behaviour incidents in a single subject. This is mainly used to create alerts that notify Heads of Department. If this has been ticked, then an additional "All teachers of subject" choice will appear in the Recipients dropdown menu in the first tab. 

'''Send a maximum of ___ messages per student in period''' 
This options sets an upper limit of the number of [[homepage#notices|notices]] that will be sent by the alert, within the time period specified above. 

===Groups===

You can add a list of student groups that the behaviour alert applies to. Only students from these groups will trigger the alert. 

[[Image:alert_groups.jpg]] 

==Deleting alerts==

To delete a behaviour alert, simply highlight it and click the "Delete" button from the top toolbar. This will not affect any behaviour incidents or notices that have already been sent, and will only stop future notices being sent.
