Read a student’s profile

Everything Vero knows about one student, on one screen. It is the page to open before a wellbeing meeting, a parent phone call, or a conversation you are not sure you should be having yet.

1. Open Insights and choose the Student Profile tab.
2. Type the student’s name and pick them from the results.

What the profile shows

• Who they are — photo, year level, house, and the date range the page is showing.
• Separation groups — any separation arrangement this student is part of, shown up front so nobody discovers it by accident. See Create a Separation group.
• Module tabs with counts — Out of Class, Uniform, Late to Class, Values, each with its own number for the period. The shape across those four is usually the story.
• Four figures — total passes, average duration, total class time missed, and whether they are out right now.
• Trend and recent activity — the daily chart, and the individual records beside it.

The number that changes conversations

Total Time Missed converts a vague impression into an hours figure. “He is out a fair bit” is arguable. “He has missed two hours and forty minutes of class in the last fortnight” is not, and it is the sentence that makes a parent meeting productive rather than defensive.

Reading the shape

• Passes rising, values falling. A student disengaging. Worth catching early.
• Passes clustered in one subject. Look at the timetable before looking at the student — it may be the lesson, not the child.
• Same time every day. Often medical, and often not something the school has been told about. Ask before assuming.
• A sudden change. The most important signal on the page. Something changed for this child in the last fortnight; the data will not tell you what.
