School Manager 2022-007 Release Notes

30 March, 2022

Welcome to School Manager 2022-007!

We added a filter to the Red Flags report. You can now focus on users with specific categories of Red Flags.

New Features & Improvements

Refined Red Flags Report

We added filtering to the Red Flags report to help school leadership and wellbeing staff find users who may need support for potentially inappropriate online behaviours. (We tidied up the icons and layout, too.) The combined improvements make it easier to understand which risk indicators are impacting individuals or groups of students.
