Academic years
Section titled “Academic years”An academic year (for example “2027”) applies to the whole organization. Academic years must not overlap. Each year goes through three steps, in this order only:
- Planned: the year is prepared. Streams can be created and students enrolled in advance.
- Active: the current year. Only one year can be active at a time.
- Closed: the year is finished. Its terms, breaks, streams and stream periods can no longer be changed.
Add academic year (directors): enter the Name, the Start date and the End date. Every active school then gets two terms, which you can adjust.
Activate makes a planned year the active one. If another year is still active, close it first with Close. Closing cannot be undone.
Terms of a school
Section titled “Terms of a school”Choose the year in the list and the School. Each school has its own terms, for example two or three. Terms lie within the academic year and must not overlap.
- Add term, enter the name and the dates, Remove a term that is not needed.
- Choose Save terms to save all terms of the school at once.
The start page shows the Current term of the school, or during the holidays the next term with its start date.
Breaks and holidays
Section titled “Breaks and holidays”Breaks are interruptions within the academic year, for example a midterm break or a public holiday. Add break: enter the name, the dates and under Applies to either Whole organization (directors) or one school.
