  We created SAM to provide schools with an easier way to manage staff absence. We used our experience in HR, education and online information management to produce a tool that would provide easy but comprehensive absence monitoring and reporting. SAM can take care of all school staff absences. Monitoring staff attendance, sickness, paid and unpaid leave and sending notifications if there are any trends or issues you need to know about. It can help towards improving educational standards through maintaining consistency of teaching and support in schools. It helps reduce absences which results in reduced supply costs, as well as centralising all your documentation so you can access things at the touch of a button and because it links to school data systems you have a consistent approach with no more manual inputting of spreadsheets. SAM was specifically developed for the education sector, so reports and tasks are tailored for primary schools, secondary schools and multi-academy trusts. The unique part of SAM is that it's not just software. It comes with the support of an Ask SAM function which is supported by our sister company FusionHR. There is also a suite of customisable absence documents, policies and letters created for you by the Fusion team using their extensive HR knowledge. Show less
