What it does
Geo-location verified marking
Teachers can only mark attendance when physically on campus. GPS verification prevents proxy marking from outside the school boundary.
Period and subject-wise tracking
Track attendance for each period and subject separately, not just daily totals. CBSE CCE and university-affiliated schools require this.
Instant parent alerts
Parents receive a WhatsApp or SMS the moment their child is marked absent. No manual follow-up from office staff.
Defaulter reports in one click
Generate lists of students below any threshold (75%, 80%, or custom) for any date range, class, or section. Export to PDF or Excel.
How it works
Teacher opens the app on campus
The teacher selects their class, period, and subject. The app checks GPS coordinates against the school boundary before enabling the marking screen.
Mark the full class in 90 seconds
Bulk-mark all students as present, then correct exceptions. Or mark individually with a single tap per student. The whole class takes under two minutes.
Parents and reports update instantly
Absent students' parents receive an instant notification. The admin dashboard, defaulter lists, and analytics all reflect the update in real time.
Frequently asked questions
Does ChalkPis support biometric attendance devices?
Yes. ChalkPis integrates with most standard biometric readers (fingerprint and face). Student and staff data syncs automatically to the dashboard. Contact us with your device model to confirm compatibility.
Can parents see their child's full attendance history?
Yes. Parents view a complete month-by-month, subject-wise attendance record for each child from the parent app. They also receive real-time absence notifications.
What happens if a teacher tries to mark attendance from outside school?
The GPS check fails outside the defined campus radius. The app locks attendance submission until the teacher is within the school boundary.
Can I generate CBSE or state board attendance reports?
Yes. ChalkPis generates attendance registers and summary reports in formats accepted by CBSE, ICSE, and major state boards. Export to PDF or Excel.
