Set up terms, sessions, grading systems, class structures, and arms for your school.

Configure Academic Settings

Academic Settings is where you define the foundation of your school's structure. Set up sessions, terms, grading scales, classes, and arms before registering students.

Steps

1. Go to Academic Settings from the main menu.
2. Under Sessions, click Add Session and enter the academic year (e.g., 2025/2026).
3. Under Terms, click Add Term and enter the term name (e.g., First Term) with start and end dates.
4. Under Grading System, define your grade boundaries (e.g., A = 70–100, B = 60–69).
5. Under Class Structure, click Add Class and enter class names (e.g., JSS 1, SS 2).
6. Under Arms, click Add Arm and assign arm labels (e.g., A, B, C) to each class.
7. Click Save to apply your settings.

Tips

• Set up sessions and terms before the school year begins.
• You can edit grading boundaries at any time, but changes only apply to future report cards.
• Arms allow you to split large classes into smaller groups for easier management.
• Ensure all classes and arms are created before registering students.
