Academic Configuration

Academic years, classes, subjects, grading scales, and timetables.

Academic years and terms

Each academic year has up to three terms with their own start/end dates. Only one term can be active at a time — this is what score entry, attendance, and report cards are scoped to.

Classes and sections

Classes (e.g. JSS1, SS2) contain one or more sections/arms (e.g. A, B, Gold) — the unit students are actually enrolled into and teachers are assigned to.

Subjects and curriculum assignment

Define your subject list once, then assign which subjects apply to which class and which teacher teaches each subject/section combination.

Grading scales

Configure grade boundaries (e.g. A: 75-100) per class — used to compute the letter grade on every score entry, gradebook, and report card.

Timetable

Generate each class's week from the teachers assigned to its subjects, with named breaks such as a short break or recess, then change, move, swap or remove lessons by hand and export it for printing. The Timetable guide walks through every step.
