Boarder Manager

Manage boarding attendance, roll call, permissions and student movement in one connected system for boarding schools.

Boarder Manager is a school-only app from Unique Schools for boarding staff, senior leadership and admin staff who need a clear, reliable way to manage day-to-day boarding operations.

Designed for boarding schools, Boarder Manager brings attendance, roll call, leave permissions, sign in/out, boarder movement and key student information into one connected system.

Staff can complete daily roll calls, run emergency roll calls, view student profiles, manage house and dorm groups, record sign in/out activity, review late returns and keep an accurate view of each boarder's current status.

Leave Permissions can be created by boarding staff or submitted by parents through the main school app. When a student is marked as a boarder, relevant parent notes and leave permissions are routed through Boarder Manager so boarding teams can review and manage them in the correct workflow.

Key features include:

• Boarding attendance management • Roll call and emergency roll call • Sign in/out records • Leave Permissions and permission slips • Weekend leave and late return management • Student movement and status visibility • Parent and staff notifications • Student profiles • House and dorm grouping • Reports and audit history • Support for school-specific boarding workflows • Integration with attendance systems including VSware and Tyro, depending on school configuration

Boarder Manager helps schools reduce manual administration, improve communication between teams and maintain a clearer record of boarding activity. The system is designed to support safer, more consistent attendance and leave processes while keeping boarding information connected to the wider Unique Schools platform.

This app is intended for schools using the Unique Schools system. Access is provided by each school. Parents continue to use the main school app for submitting notes and leave permissions.
