Every school collects attendance data, but not every school uses it effectively.

Studybugs completes your whole-school approach by automatically alerting staff to attendance triggers and patterns, putting the right data in the right hands at the right time.

No reports to run. No delays. Just the information you need to enable quick and impactful action.

Gain More Time to Spend Helping Children

The most important part of any attendance system is always going to be you — the people at the heart of it.

Studybugs handles routine and repetitive tasks and provides actionable insights in seconds, so you can spend less time behind a computer and more time supporting pupils and their families.

“Studybugs really complements our well-established attendance systems. We particularly like the dashboards which can be so easily adapted to reflect individual roles and allow staff to quickly access live data. The fact the information is displayed very visually and clearly is a bonus!”

“Studybugs cuts out admin burden by at least a couple of hours each day, leaving the attendance team more time to apply the personal touch where it's really needed.”

“Just does everything for you. I could really easily bring up any children below 90%, identify patterns and track absences. When we shared with our LA Attendance Officer and Ofsted, they were really impressed with what we were able to share. I don't know what we did before we had it! I would thoroughly recommend.”
