Staff & Roles

Holiday calendar

List your school's holidays so attendance and payroll calculate the right working days.

Holiday calendar

Every working-day calculation on the platform — attendance grids, payroll, leave balances — depends on the holiday calendar being accurate.

Where to find it

From the menu: Staff → Holidays.

Adding a holiday

  1. Click + Add Holiday.
  2. Pick the date (or date range for multi-day events like a Diwali break).
  3. Type the title (Diwali, Republic Day, Sports Day, etc.).
  4. Pick which campuses it applies to (defaults to all).
  5. Save.

How holidays affect things

  • Attendance — holidays don't appear on the attendance grid; you don't mark Sundays as everyone-absent.
  • Payroll — working-day count excludes holidays, so salary proration is correct.
  • Leave — taking leave on a holiday doesn't use up your balance.

Long breaks

For multi-day breaks (Diwali week, summer vacation), add one holiday with a date range rather than 10 separate entries.
