Set up a class

Organise children and staff around the class they attend.

Before you begin

An administrator should prepare the centre and staff records first.

Step by step

  1. Open Classes and check for an existing class with the same name.
  2. Choose Add class and enter the class name, centre and required details.
  3. Choose Save class and check the saved class.
  4. Choose Edit teachers to assign the relevant staff.
  5. Open Roster and review the children attached to the class.
  6. Review enrolments or staff assignments separately if a child or teacher is missing.

Check the result

The class can be selected in the relevant daily workflows.

A useful check

A class name is not a school permission. Review centre access and staff assignments separately.

If the result is different, check the account and school first, then contact the team with the task and error wording.
