Purpose

The Leave screen is where you apply for your own time off and check whether it's been approved. This is separate from any leave approvals you might see for others — as a teacher, you're only managing your own leave requests here, which your school admin then reviews and approves or rejects.

When to Use

  • When you need to request a day (or several days) off.
  • To check whether a leave request you submitted has been approved yet.
  • To review your leave history or remaining leave balance, if your school tracks one.

How to Use

  1. Open the Leave tab.

  2. Tap New Request (or similar) to start a leave application.

    The Leave request form, with fields for date range, leave type, and a reason.

  3. Choose your leave dates, select a leave type if your school uses categories (sick, casual, etc.), and add a brief reason.

  4. Submit the request. It will show as Pending until your admin reviews it.

  5. Check back on the Leave tab to see the status change to Approved or Rejected, along with any note from your admin.

  6. Use your Timetable to check which classes fall on the days you're requesting, so your admin can arrange coverage.

TipApplying a few days in advance, rather than the morning of, gives your admin time to arrange a substitute and reduces the chance of your request being rushed through or missed.
Common MistakeYou generally can't edit a leave request once your admin has acted on it. If your plans change after approval or rejection, contact your admin directly instead of resubmitting.
