Attendance
School attendance management system
Mark a whole class in one tap, alert parents the moment a child is absent, and get attendance reports without lifting a register.
EdFlo's attendance management system replaces paper registers with one-tap mobile marking and real-time reporting. Teachers save time, parents get instant peace of mind, and admins finally see attendance trends across every class and section at a glance.
The trouble with manual attendance
Paper registers are slow, easy to lose and impossible to analyse. By the time absences are noticed, parents have already missed the chance to act — and admins have no real-time picture of the school.
- ×Teachers spend the first 10 minutes of class on roll call
- ×Parents find out about absences far too late
- ×Monthly attendance reports are compiled by hand
- ×No way to spot attendance patterns or chronic absentees

Frequently asked questions
How do teachers mark attendance in EdFlo?
Teachers open the EdFlo app, select their class and mark students present, absent or late in a single tap. It syncs instantly, so admins and parents see updates in real time with no paperwork.
Do parents get notified when a student is absent?
Yes. As soon as a student is marked absent, parents receive an automatic alert through the parent app, and optionally via WhatsApp and SMS, so they know immediately.
Can EdFlo track staff attendance too?
Yes. EdFlo supports staff attendance with optional geofencing to verify location, and it feeds directly into payroll so salaries reflect actual attendance.
Does it work without internet in the classroom?
Teachers only need a brief connection to sync. Marking is fast and lightweight, and once synced, reports and parent alerts are generated automatically.
