Add and maintain sections
Use Add section on the appropriate class group when the school has parallel streams, such as Basic 1 A and Basic 1 B. Section classes can share the same academic grade while holding their own pupils and fee settings. Older schools may also have division-based records; check the structure shown before moving pupils.
- Use Rename to change an existing class name instead of creating an unnecessary replacement.
- Use View students to check the roster and Class settings from Students to return to the relevant fee settings.
- A class or section with existing records may not be deletable. Read the message and preserve its history.
Check academic order before year end
The owner can use Reorder where available. This order matters for year-end placement and promotion. Keep parallel sections grouped at the same academic grade. Review repeat and skip-class decisions before changing the structure or closing the final term.
