The Counsel tab in the Student’s window provides a way to capture an individual student’s counselling history.
You can log each interaction with an individual student including things like counselling sessions, attendance at careers nights, attendance at lectures or to hear guest speakers, work related excursions etc. These counselling records form part of a student’s overall individual pathways plan and also provide evidence of the part you have played in counselling and providing for students.
Each student may have multiple counselling records. Each counselling record can include the following:
- The TYPE of counselling provided. e.g. one-on-one, information provision.
- The date counselling was provided.
- Details of the counselling provided.
- Who provided the counselling.
A private field determines whether or not the specific counselling detail record is published. If private is ticked it becomes a private counselling record, which you can access on your computer but will not be included in any printed reports.
Batch Update Wizard:
You can update multiple student records simultaneously using the Batch Update wizard. For example, if several students have attended a Careers Night you could update several students records in a single operation, thus saving tedious data entry on a student-by-student basis.
Click the Batch Update Wizard button and enter the details requested by the wizard. The Batch update wizard allows you to update multiple student records simultaneously. You can use the Batch Update wizard to update:
-
Student counselling records OR
-
Student Exit details OR
-
Student default details

Note that student counselling records are separate multiple records. A student may have multiple counselling records against their name. The Exit details, however, are simply additional fields against a student record. This means that while a student may have many counselling records, each student may only have a single set of Exit details. |
