One family, less repetition
A single signature can cover siblings in the same family. Parents can add pickup persons and photos through the app when the school enables self-service.

Preschool attendance, from hello to home time.

A practical routine
How it works at your school
Simple steps that fit around the busy business of caring for children.

Record the school day
Mark arrivals, absences, late arrivals and departures with times and notes. Attendance notifications keep families informed through the Koonection app.
- 02
Check who is collecting
When pickup photos are enabled, staff choose the matching person from the family’s authorised pickup list before recording collection.
- 03
Capture a signature
Enable pickup photos and signatures, then choose which arrivals and departures need a signature. Keep the collection record and signature together.

A few good questions
About preschool attendance management
Can Koonection record late arrivals and early departures?
Yes. Staff can record late arrivals and early departures with the relevant time and notes, alongside present, absent and departed attendance statuses.
How do authorised pickup photos and signatures work?
The school enables pickup photos so staff can select a person from the family’s authorised list. Digital signatures require both pickup photos and signatures to be enabled. The school chooses whether to require signatures for drop-off, pickup, late arrival or early departure.
Can parents manage their child’s pickup persons?
Yes, when an administrator enables pickup photos and parent self-service. Parents can register pickup persons with a photo through the Koonection app or during registration. People added by parents are identified on the family’s pickup list.
Can one signature cover brothers and sisters?
Yes. The collection workflow allows one signature to cover eligible siblings in the same family, so the person collecting them does not need to sign separately for each child.
