## Since Launch

The following capabilities have shipped since the initial release. Ship dates for individual features are not tracked in this changelog. See each feature's overview page for current behavior.

### Attendance Tracking

* Fast attendance marking (Present, Absent, Late)
* Attendance dashboard
* Chronic absence alerts, with a cool-down so an absence you have already acknowledged stops re-alerting
* Attendance reports
* Attendance trend analysis

### PACE Grading and Moderation

* Test score entry, single or in batches
* Three-stage moderation (first-line, internal, external), with internal moderation finalizing a score and external moderation optional
* Distinct marks recorded at each moderation stage, so you can see what each moderator awarded
* Decimal scores, so a mark such as 87.5 is recorded exactly as it was awarded
* Activity PACEs that are completed rather than scored, marked done in bulk
* Prior PACE entry for students who join mid-year with work already completed elsewhere
* Automatic PACE completion when a passing final score is recorded, reversed if a correction later drops the score below the pass mark
* Pass threshold enforcement, grade calculations, and a retest workflow
* Audit trail for ACE compliance

### Progress Cards

* Printable Supervisor's Progress Card showing each student's PACE journey across the year
* Colour coding by the term a PACE was completed in
* Download as a PDF, or email it to a parent

### The PACE Catalog

* The ICCE Africa curriculum available to every school as a shared catalog, covering the core subjects, Bible Reading, and the full elective and Lifepac course range
* Reading Readiness and ABC shown as separate readiness levels
* Your own custom subjects and PACEs, added and edited by an administrator
* Editable page counts and levels, so you can correct a booklet that does not match your printed copy
* Natural sorting, so a coded course reads 1 to 10 rather than 1, 10, 2

### Report Cards and Records

* Report card generation and distribution
* Report card templates
* Term data compiled from grades, attendance, and Goal Check
* Distribution to parents
* Permanent record archive

### Reports and Documents

* Every generated report rebuilt on one branded design, with charts drawn into the document itself

### Trend Analysis and Insights

* Time-series trend visualization
* Student-level trend analysis

### Student and Parent Portals

* Student portal for viewing goals, progress, grades, homework, attendance, and activities, plus the student's own profile page
* Parent portal for viewing a child's progress and booking meetings
* Parent invitations sent manually by staff, and revocable, so a family is only linked when the school intends it

### Day-to-Day Operations

* Behaviour records logged from a dedicated entry screen, and editable or removable afterwards
* Homework completion reporting for supervisors and monitors
* Library catalog, checkouts, overdue and lost handling, with per-row editing and stock adjustment

* Bulk import from a spreadsheet for students, learning centres, staff invitations, and library books, each with a downloadable template that lists every field
* Duplicate warnings when a student you are adding looks like one already on the roster
* Bulk grade-level promotion and graduation at the end of a year
* A reason and category recorded whenever a student is deactivated
* Term locking, so a closed term stops accepting backdated entries
