Biometric Attendance and Cashless Catering
Attendance
This is a revolutionary new approach to recording student attendance, replacing old school registers with a system that enables students to register for themselves.
Using the latest in biometric fingerprint recognition technology, Live RegisterT eradicates wasted registration time and gives more time for teaching or for form tutors to deal with students' concerns.
Efficient and secure, this system provides added flexibility as well as improved information for staff, helping them to deal more effectively with any attendance issues.
Simple to use - With Live RegisterT terminals placed strategically around the school, students simply key in their year number and place their thumb on the scanner to register. Attendance reports can be viewed by staff from any networked computer with secure access to the system.
It's modern and fun and both teachers and students find it quick and easy to use.
Cashless Catering
This is a modern approach to managing school catering, replacing cash and cards with a system that is both secure and efficient.
Using the same system for recording student attendance - With Live RegisterT Point of Sale (POS) Terminals integrated into our catering facility, students authenticate by placing their thumb on the scanner at the same time as an operator keys in meal items using a touch sensitive screen.
Biometric fingerprint recognition technology, Live RegisterT eradicates bullying which is associated with dinner money and doesn't need to introduce cards or tickets.
Efficient and secure, Live RegisterT provides added flexibility as well as better information for staff, helping them to improve students' diets and manage resources more effectively.
