Operations · Work Leave
Leave requests settled before lessons suffer.
Staff request leave in-app, approvers decide promptly, and balances stay current on their own. Approved absences surface for cover planning, so the timetable never learns about a gap from an empty classroom.
Work Leave
Leave requests settled before lessons suffer.
Request
Leave requests without the paper chase.
Staff file requests in-app with dates and reasons — sick, annual, compassionate, study — instead of hunting for the right form. Every request enters the same queue, visible to approvers at once.
- Requests filed in-app with dates and reasons
- All leave types in a single queue
- No lost forms between office and desk

Decide
Approvals in one sitting.
Heads and admins approve or decline with reasons, and staff hear back promptly instead of waiting by the staffroom door. Difficult term-time requests get fair, recorded decisions.
- Approve or decline with recorded reasons
- Staff notified of decisions promptly
- Term-time requests decided fairly on record

Balance
Balances that count themselves.
Entitlements and days taken stay current per staff member and leave type — no ledger book, no disputed arithmetic. Staff check their own balance before asking, and approvers decide with facts.
- Entitlements and taken days always current
- Balances visible before requesting
- No disputed arithmetic at year end

Cover
Absences become cover, not gaps.
Approved leave surfaces for cover planning at once — substitutes assigned, classes held, learning unbroken. The loop between HR’s approval and the timetable closes by itself.
- Approved leave feeds cover planning
- Substitutes assigned before lessons
- Classes held while staff are away
