What is class charts?

Class charts is behaviour management software used by our teachers to record and track student achievement and behaviour in real-time. This software gives you up to the minute information on your child’s behaviour, both positive and negative instantly making it easy to track your child’s progress. Class charts is used by our teachers to communicate with you vital information regarding your child such as any positive value points awarded, in the case of any negative points given with reason, important announcements, praise messages and any detention which your child may have.

As parents, you can keep up to date with your child’s progress through the class charts website or by downloading the Class Charts app for parents on iOS and Android devices. If you have more than one child, you can access Class Charts information about your children from a single, centralised parent account.

As a parent, what can I view on class charts?

Behaviour

By default, the displayed date range is 31 days, to view a different range of behaviour data, click on the Date button to select from the available presets or create your own custom date range.

   

Detentions

You will see the Detentions tab when viewing your child’s behaviour. Selecting this tab will display a list of detentions that have been set for your child. Detentions fall under 4 categories:

Attended, not attended, pending and Upscaled. Attended: Your child has sat this detention. Not attended: Your child did not sit this detention. Pending: This detention has not been sat yet. Upscaled: Your child’s detention has been escalated into another type of detention as they have missed the original detention.

Reading announcements by staff about your child.
