Introduction

Types of Report

Adhoc

Adhoc Reports typically are used to allow peripatetic teachers to prepare reports that conform to the same style as other CAIRO printed output. Such teachers are, by definition, not included in the CAIRO database and do not have classes or teaching sets assigned to them. Adhoc reports contain a text field into which the teacher types his or her name.

Typical use would be for a visiting teacher who teaches, say, a musical instrument to a few pupils once a week.

Because pupils taking adhoc lessons are not necessarily in specific group such as year, set, class or tutor group, data input is optimised to help the teachers quickly identify pupils for whom reports are to be written.

Printed output gathers, for each pupil, all adhoc reports within the current reporting period and prints them consecutively.
