Reminder - Changes to Recording Student Absence

Towards the end of last term I communicated to all parents changes to the way in which parents inform the school of their child’s absence. This new system commenced Monday, 22 March with great success. Please note that all absentee notices need to be made to the School as soon as possible in the morning and the system will not be able to record absences after 10:00am each morning.

USING PAM TO SUBMIT A STUDENT ABSENCE

Please follow the steps below and submit your child’s absence from school via our Parent Access Module (PAM) if your child is unable to attend school on any day.

PAM 1 — Step 1: Visit PAM and log in with your Username and Password.

PAM 2 — Step 2: Upon accessing the home screen, you will find the ‘Parent Notified Absences’ tab on the right-hand side of the page. Click to enter.

PAM 3 — Step 3: Click the blue ‘Add Future Absence’ button to add your child’s upcoming absence. (Please Note: Notifications can only be added prior to 9.30am on the day of absence).

PAM 4 — Step 4: Complete the form in full and add your notification to save.

I thank you in anticipation of your adoption of this new procedure and please do not hesitate to email me at dp@humegrammar.vic.edu.au if you have any questions.
