  • Record pastoral management issues for individuals or groups of pupils.
  • Add notes and actions to records.
  • Search records.
  • View, edit and delete pastoral records.
  • Create and update pastoral record types and categories.
  • Complete Getting It Right For Every Child (GIRFEC) forms. (Scottish Schools Only. For more information, see About GIRFEC).
