Biometric Information
At Newlands Girls’ School we operate a biometric recognition system in our canteen. This allows the till registers to recognise pupils using finger imaging, greatly improving security and efficiency. The benefits include:
- Improved security when processing financial transactions in the school
- No cost to parents and administration time to replace lost or forgotten cards
- Reduction in opportunities for pupils using each other’s or lost/stolen cards or pin numbers
- Pupils do not have to remember a pin or to bring a card
- Reduction in queueing time
