How does setting an Exception Window work?

The ‘Set Exception Window’ setting allows you to apply in-school policies to your students for specified time periods even when they are off-campus.

• Application of Policies: If you have the Take-home policy or if parents have the Parent Policy set up, then the student will be filtered according to those policies when they are off-campus. However, if you want them to receive an in-school policy instead, you should enable the Set Exception Window field in Global Settings. This is particularly useful when schools have not yet opened full-time offline, and students are attending classes online from home.

• Selecting Days and Times: You can select the days and times when the exception window should apply. For the selected days and times, the student will receive the in-school policy even if the parent policy or take-home policy is present. For days and time slots not specified here, the parent policy or take-home policy will apply if the student is off-campus.

How to Turn on the Exception Window:

1. Log in to Filter.
2. Navigate to Policy Editor.
3. Go to Global Settings.
4. Enable the Set Exception Window field.

This will allow you to customize the application of in-school policies for students even when they are off-campus.

How to set your Working Hours:

1. Navigate to Settings.
2. Go to General.
3. Set your school working hours.

Note: This setting will only be present once you have enabled "Set exception window for out of school policies" in your Global settings
