Attendance Register
Class: __________ Section: ______ Subject: __________________
Roll numbers and names down the side, the days you teach across the top. Print it on A4 or save a PDF.
Need names and signatures instead? Use the sign-in sheet maker.
Type a title and a second line, like the class, section and subject.
Pick the month and the days you teach, like Monday to Saturday. Only those dates get a column. For a course without fixed dates, switch to numbered sessions and set how many.
Paste your class list, one name per line. Put the roll number first, like “23CS045 Aarav Shah”, or paste the two columns straight from Excel, and it goes in the Roll No. column. Without roll numbers, the rows are numbered in order.
A4 is already picked; switch to Letter if your printer needs it. Landscape gives each day a wider column, which helps with a full month.
Print it, or save it as a PDF. Long lists continue onto more pages, and every page repeats the title and the dates.
A class, a batch or a weekly group. You write the roll numbers and names down the side once and use the register all month.
One page covers every class, so you can spot someone who has missed three Saturdays in a row.
The teacher or the class representative fills in the grid. Nobody passes a register round the room.
Count each row into the Days present column to work out attendance percentages, internal marks or a club’s records.
For a one-off event or a group that changes every time, people should write their own names. The sign-in sheet maker makes that kind of sheet.
Mark every box, including absences. An empty box could mean absent or could mean you forgot. A letter leaves no doubt.
Take attendance at the same point in every period, such as right after the bell, so latecomers are marked the same way each time.
Strike off holidays before the month starts. A line down the whole column keeps a holiday from being counted as an absence.
Keep the names in roll number order so the register matches the office list. Copying marks over goes faster when both lists are in the same order.
Total the attendance on the last day of the month, while the register is in front of you, so anyone falling short of the minimum is spotted early.
Keep last month’s register. Parents and the office sometimes ask about attendance long after the month is over.
If your class has phones, Im Here! can take attendance at the start of the period. You open a room and put the four-digit PIN or the QR code on the board. Everyone types their name on their own phone, and the names show up on your screen as they come in. Add your class list and the room shows who's missing.
When you're done, copy the list or download it as a CSV that opens in Excel. It's free, and nobody needs an account. Keep a printed register for days without Wi-Fi.

Open a room, put the PIN on the board, and watch the names arrive.
