Give wellbeing teams clearer pass context

Review teacher-created passes to counsellor, sick bay and wellbeing destinations as prompts to check context — not diagnoses, risk scores or automatic decisions.

Examples of contextual record review

These illustrative examples show how authorised staff can review relevant pass entries without assigning a cause or labelling a student.

Repeated sick bay destinations

A sample pass record includes sick bay as the expected destination on several dates. Staff must check the entries and listen to the student; the record is not evidence of anxiety, bullying or illness.

Entries from the same timetable period

A sample record shows counsellor passes during the same Maths period. Staff can check the learning and wellbeing context without assuming avoidance, anxiety or a learning difficulty.

The rising trend

Sample sick bay pass volume rises across Year 8 over three weeks. Authorised staff can validate the data and decide whether a broader operational or wellbeing review is appropriate.

Record passes to configured wellbeing destinations

Vero records passes to destinations your school defines — counsellor, sick bay, wellbeing office, psychologist or year-level coordinator — with the student, approving teacher and associated times.

  • School-configured support destinations
  • Restricted access according to staff role
  • Recorded open and end times, not observed visit duration

Add pass context to a wider support process

When a student is referred through the school's own process, appropriately authorised staff can review relevant Vero pass entries alongside approved case-management information.

  • Choose a relevant date range
  • Validate entries before using them
  • Export authorised records where school policy permits

School activity records, not a wellbeing score

Vero records teacher-created passes. It does not diagnose, rank risk, contact students or replace the school's approved support processes.

Avoid

Reading a pattern as a conclusion

  • Limit how often students can visit the counsellor
  • Label repeated records as a behaviour problem
  • Use data to justify reducing access to wellbeing services
Vero approach

Review with care

  • Use relevant records only when there is a defined purpose
  • Give wellbeing teams context for informed conversations
  • Keep support decisions with authorised professionals

Common questions

How does Vero record counsellor and sick bay passes?
When a teacher creates a pass to a counsellor, sick bay or wellbeing destination, Vero records the student, approving teacher, selected destination and associated times. It is a pass record, not confirmation of what happened during the visit.
Can authorised staff review passes to a counsellor destination?
Yes. Where the school has configured that destination and granted the appropriate role, authorised staff can review teacher-created pass records over a selected date range. The record shows what staff entered; it does not confirm what happened during a visit or establish a wellbeing concern.
Does this replace the counsellor's own records?
No. Vero records teacher-created passes and associated times. Professional notes, case management, treatment information and safeguarding records stay in the systems and processes the school has approved for them.
How should these records be used?
A school may review relevant records when it has an appropriate reason to check context. The entries do not diagnose anxiety, bullying, a medical issue or any other wellbeing concern, and they do not replace listening to the student or professional judgement.
Can Vero record a pass to an external provider?
Vero records teacher-created passes from a classroom to a selected destination. For an external provider, the pass can record departure from class and the approved destination; the school’s existing off-campus, consent and provider processes handle the rest.
