Lesson attendance

Music Lesson Attendance Tracking That Matches What You Bill

Most billing disputes in a teaching studio are really attendance disputes. Music Shop Suite records attendance at the moment of the lesson, handles make-ups and credits properly, and bills from the record instead of from memory.

  • Attended, late, absent, or cancelled marked from the calendar
  • Make-up slots and credits handled without breaking the balance
  • Attendance history per student, teacher, and term
  • Retention and no-show rates surfaced before families quit
  • Billing generated from actual attendance

Mark it in the room, not at month end

Attendance recorded a week later is a guess. Teachers mark the lesson as it happens from the weekly view, and that mark is the single source of truth for the invoice.

  • One tap per lesson from the teacher's calendar
  • Cancellation reason and notice period captured
  • Notes per lesson for progress and parent updates

Make-ups that do not leak money

Late cancellations, credits, and rescheduled slots are where studios quietly lose income. Every credit is issued explicitly, expires on your policy, and shows on the family balance.

Spot the drift early

Two missed lessons in a row is the strongest predictor of a cancelled enrolment. An attendance report by student makes that visible while a phone call still helps.

One family, one balance

Lessons, rentals, and repairs for the same family roll into one monthly bill, so attendance corrections do not mean re-issuing three separate invoices.

See the workbench before you sign up

Inventory, pricing, lesson bookings, and instrument lending all live in the same back-office dashboard — no separate apps, no re-keying between them.

Frequently asked

Can I mark attendance during the lesson?
Yes. Mark attended, late, absent, or cancelled from the weekly calendar, and the record carries through to billing.
How are make-up lessons handled?
A missed lesson can be credited or rolled into a make-up slot. Either way the balance stays correct and both parties can see what is owed.
Can I see attendance per teacher and per student?
Yes. Attendance rates by teacher, student, and term show retention problems long before a family cancels.
