Info: SEEMiS and Non Highland Council Staff

Please see our up to date guidance on External Teaching Staff below.  This is also available in the staff manual.

 

In some Secondary Schools lecturers from the University or College will provide teaching for courses in the school.

As these staff are not employed by the Highland Council, access must not be granted to any personal pupil or staff information under GDPR (General Data Protection and Regulation). Therefore staff not employed by the Highland Council must not have access to the SEEMiS System.

Whereby a person who is not employed by Highland Council requires to take pupil registration, a paper register should be supplied. The school office can then be timetabled against the class and would in-put the registration on the lecturer’s behalf. The Mrs Time Table dummy records should not be used for this purpose.

Action: Click+Go: P7 Transition

Secondary Schools will already be working on their timetables for the next Academic Year and will require current P7 pupil data to be available as provisional pupils.

Primary Schools must check their P7 data before transferring the records to the relevant Secondary School.   Note that transferring the record does not mean the Primary will lose their data – the records will remain current in Primary until the leaving date is reached.

Action: Click+Go Attendance for the Healthy Living Survey

The Scottish Government will shortly be collecting data for the annual Healthy Living Survey.  The Survey is carried out for publicly funded schools in Scotland on registration for free school meals, uptake of school meals (both free and paid for) and Physical Education (PE) provision.

Data for the Healthy Living Survey will be uploaded direct from SEEMiS and focus on pupil attendance up to and including Wednesday, 26 February 2020

All schools must ensure that pupil attendance is up to date in SEEMiS each day to ensure that the data is accurate when uploaded for Scottish Government.

Please ensure that all outstanding TBCs are regularly updated.  See the guidance on Glow here.

 

Thank you

Action: Click+Go: Access to Records Edit: LAC and Child Protection Tabs

It is important to note that the LAC (Looked After Children) and Child Protection data within Records >>Edit are completed centrally.  There should be no user with access to edit the data on these screens.

Please can those with the Click+Go Security Profile ensure that staff who have been applied access through Application>>Data Utilities>>Access Control>>Edit Data Settings>>Record Edit Access do not have Edit access set for LAC or Child Protection.

Queries regarding data on either of these screens should be directed to

LAC-Health@Highland.gov.uk

Info: Click+Go: Contacts – Gets Report field

Unfortunately we have just learnt that the Gets Report field within the Contacts screen in Records>>Edit can not be extracted through Custom Reports to pull reliable results due to a bug in the system.  Note this bug does not affect Custom Reports other than for this field.

Schools who require this data however can log a request through the Systems Support Team and we can provide this data through an alternative source.  Please advise in your call the data that is required.

Action: Click+Go: P1 and ELC Enrolments

Please see guidance on Sharepoint here for how to carry out enrolment within Click+Go for P1 and ELC pupils.

Info: Click+Go: Bullying Incidents

Bullying Incidents should be recorded under Application >> Management >> Bullying&Equalities >> Maintain Incident.

Please  remember that Bullying Incidents cannot be deleted, only amended.  The Incident outcome can also be marked as unfounded.

Action: Click+Go Support and Training

A reminder that if you require any support or training that you must log a call with our team through the Service Portal.

To log a call click here and go to the Contact us button, or use the web chat facility on the Service Portal or call 01463 253150

Please ensure all the staff know how to log a call.

Info: Click+Go: Pupil Addresses

Note that within Records>> Edit the Address tab data relates to the pupil not the contacts.   When a pupil is added through New Intake Enrolment or New Exceptional Enrolment, the contact details are required to be input however this then feeds through to the Address tab within Records>>Edit.  Where not appropriate for the pupil, this should be amended.

To enter an address, always type in the postcode first, then click the Verify Address button and select the address – this will ensure that the data is entered in a consistent manner and will also feed the UPRN (Unique Property Reference Number) which is linked to the catchment areas.
