Digital Attendance & Welfare Log
Compliant with EYFS 2025 'Welfare Check' requirements.
The 2025 EYFS update requires providers to "follow up" on prolonged absences and hold multiple emergency contacts. A simple "tick-box" attendance sheet is no longer sufficient.
Use this digital log to track daily attendance. If a child is absent without notice, the system will automatically prompt the mandatory Welfare Check protocol.

Why is this required?
Safeguarding updates now mandate that unexplained absences are treated as a potential welfare concern immediately. You must have an audit trail showing that you attempted to contact parents/carers.
