Classes

What it does

The Classes page lets you organize students into classes, assign teachers as form tutors, set capacity limits, and monitor enrollment, attendance, and academic progress for each class. View in grid or list, search by class/teacher/room, and filter by the grade labels found in your actual class names.

Who uses it

• Principal / School Admin — monitor class enrollment, form tutor assignments, and class-level performance.
• Registrar — create classes, enroll students, assign teachers, manage capacity.
• Teacher — view their own assigned classes, enrollments, and performance.
• Homeroom teacher — manage their form class.

Common tasks

• Students — enrolled / capacity.
• Subject.
• Avg attendance — latest rate (green ≥95%, orange 88–95%, red <88%).
• Avg score — latest academic average.
• Form tutor — assigned teacher.
