FAQ

Staff & leave, answered.

Can staff clock in via a mobile app?

Yes. Staff mark their own attendance via mobile web — with geo-fencing optional. Biometric integration also available via standard devices.

Does it replace our payroll software?

No. Campusless tracks attendance and leave, then exports to your payroll system (or accountant). We stay focused on school operations — payroll has different compliance rules per country.

Can we have different leave policies per role?

Yes. Configure separate leave structures for teachers, admin staff, support staff, or any role. Per-individual overrides also supported for senior staff.

Does the leave approval go through email?

Email notifications are sent to approvers, but approvals happen inside Campusless — so there's a full audit trail. No approval-by-email confusion.

How do substitute teachers work?

When a teacher is marked on leave, an admin assigns a substitute. The substitute gets access to the class timetable, roster, and any pre-loaded lesson plans. Parents are notified of the substitution if your school chooses.
