Solution

  • The problem that you are having is that you are instantiating a brand new VC and passing data to it. The VC that is actually presented is not the one you created.

    Since you have a segue connecting the two VCs, override prepare(for:sender:)

    override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
    if let vc = segue.destination as? StaffAttendence_SecondPage {
        vc.a = ...
        vc.b = ...
        // pass the rest of the data here...
    }
}
