Planner and Library

Planner

CPOMS also contains a full planner for every enhanced access staff member. You can add personal events to your diary, as well as public ones which will be visible to all CPOMS key using staff.

The calendar display for the planner shows a month by month view, displaying any events or reminders set for each month in a familiar calendar layout.

As you would expect from any calendar functionality, there is also a day view which shows a timeline style display of events on the selected day.

The public and personal events are differentiated by colour, please see the key to the bottom left of the planner.

The ‘New event’ button allows you to add a new event to your planner, and to quickly link the event to a student(s), using the autocomplete fields. This is useful for example if you have a case review meeting for that particular child, or family. You can then click through from the event to run off a comprehensive incident report ahead of the meeting.

If you wish to make an event public, tick the box marked ‘Public’ when adding the event. The event will then automatically appear in all other key users calendars. If this is not ticked the event will automatically default to private.

You may also choose to share the event with a particular colleague(s) by entering their name in the ‘Share with’ option. The event will then appear within their planner area, and they will also receive any reminders that you have set for the event.

Library

The ‘Library’ area is available for your school to store generic policies, procedures, and templates. We advise you not to add any confidential or sensitive documentation in this area.

Sensitive documentation must always be logged as a new incident with the relevant category(s) assigned, to ensure only those with the correct level of access can access.

The ‘Library’ area can be accessed by all CPOMS users, or you can choose to restrict to your key users only via the CPOMS ‘Admin’ area > ‘System Settings’ tab, by ticking or un-ticking the ‘Non-Key holders allowed access to Library section?’ option here.

Once you have uploaded a file to this area, under ‘Options’ you can choose to ‘Alert users’, who can then in turn ‘mark as read’ once viewed. The alert will be sent via email and appear on the users dashboard.

If you would like to add your School Logo to the system it can be uploaded here, and chosen under ‘Admin’ > ‘Settings’ > ‘School Logo’. Once chosen, the logo will appear on your CPOMS login screen and in the header of PDF reports.
