The pupil information window is used to show an overview of information for one pupil. The pupil information window can be accessed from any area of PARS and will show a wide range of information, depending on the permissions given to the user.

This page is accessed via:
PARS main menu > Personal > Pupil information

Alternatively, you can access the pupil information window by clicking the i button on the quick launch bar at the very top of PARS. This bar is always visible, so you can access the pupil information window regardless of the page of PARS you are using.

Personal

The personal tab is displayed by default. All personal data is linked directly with SIMS; if SIMS data is incorrect, it will be incorrect here.

It gives a breakdown of the pupil's behaviour, cumulative year-to-date attendance percentages in each subject, classes and tutor groups where: Pres = Present; Auth = Authorised absence; Unauth = Unauthorised absence and the percentage of attendances that were late.

Behaviour information is also cumulative year-to-date, and is given where M/C = merit count: the number of individual merits awarded; M/T = merit total: the total number of merit points awarded; D/C = demerit count: the number of individual demerits awarded and D/T = demerit total: the total number of demerit points awarded.

Medical data can be viewed here also with correct permissions

please ensure the correct jobs are select via  Automation Module to run all personal jobs 
 

Dashboard

This will show a variety of radial graphs relating to aspects of the student's attendance, behaviour and grading including:

• Location of positive/negative behaviour
• Who logged the behaviour
• What event most occurring
• Number of positive/negative behaviours logged

All data is cumulative Year to date

You can click on the charts to zoom in.

Docs

This shows documents linked to the student that are stored on the SIMS Document server. If the user has the correct permissions they can also use the 'Upload' button to upload new files to the Document server. If documents are set to 'Private' in SIMS, they cannot be seen here.

Once a file is uploaded to the document server, it is linked to that student, and can be reviewed at any time by members of staff. Please note you can export this page to xls also using the xls export button on the right of the window.
