Question:

Why are students in some schools being asked to register their attendance using their cards?

Answer:

We are carrying out a small pilot where students will be asked to use cards to register their attendance in addition to signing registers.

It has been a long-established process that attendance is taken at certain teaching sessions.

This pilot is not changing the data we collect, it is simply changing the way in which it is collected.
