How Attendance Percentage Is Calculated
The formula is straightforward:
Attendance % = (Days Present ÷ Total Working Days) × 100
For example, if a school had 220 working days and a student attended 198 days:
(198 ÷ 220) × 100 = 90%
Why Attendance Tracking Matters
Regular attendance tracking is not just a compliance requirement — it directly impacts learning outcomes. Here is why schools should monitor attendance closely:
- Board exam eligibility: CBSE and most state boards require minimum 75% attendance to appear for final exams
- RTE compliance: Schools must report attendance data to government portals including UDISE+
- Early intervention: Identifying students with falling attendance helps prevent dropouts
- Parent communication: Accurate attendance data strengthens parent-teacher interactions
- Scholarship eligibility: Many government scholarships have attendance thresholds
Minimum Attendance Requirements by Board
| Board / Authority | Minimum Required | Consequence |
|---|---|---|
| CBSE | 75% | Detained / not eligible for board exams |
| ICSE / ISC | 75% | Cannot appear for final exams |
| State Boards (most) | 75% | Varies by state |
| RTE Act (Classes 1-8) | No minimum for promotion | Attendance tracked for compliance |
| NAAC (Colleges) | 75% | Not eligible for exams |
