Add a class, its section and its subjects to your school LMS
Add a class with its grade, name, section and subjects. The teachers can wait; the new class gets its own page at once.
Every screen in the films is the real product, shown on a demo school made for them.
Classes hold the LMS together: work is shared with a class, students join a class, and reports are read class by class. That is why the office sets them up before inviting teachers and students. A class needs only its grade, a name, a section and the subjects it studies.
The film adds a Class 9 section on a demo school, skips the teacher step on purpose, and opens the new class's page to show what is already there and what is still to come.
Step by step
Open Classes
On the school admin dashboard, press Classes in the left menu. Each row is one class, with its grade and its students.
Watch from 0:00Press Add class and pick the grade
Press Add class at the top right and choose the grade. The film picks Class 9.
Watch from 0:21Name the class and its section
Type the class name exactly as teachers and students should see it, then its section. The name appears on every list and every share, so keep to the style your school already uses.
Watch from 0:34Tick its subjects
Tick every subject this class studies; each one will need a teacher later. Under More options you can set the board, the most students the class may take, and any notes. Press Continue.
Watch from 0:44Leave the teachers for later
Step two asks who teaches the class. You can leave it empty, which helps when your teachers are not invited yet: you can choose them later under Who teaches what. Check what you are creating and press Create class.
Watch from 1:04Open the class's own page
The new class has its own page. Its subjects are listed, each with no teacher yet, and its tabs cover its subjects, students, teachers and settings. The Classes list now includes the new class too.

Good to know
Each section is its own class
A class is a grade with a section, such as 10-A or 10-B. Each has its own page, its own students and its own teachers, so add each section with Add class.
Subjects with no teacher show as gaps
Every subject you tick appears under Classes, Who teaches what. Until it has a teacher, it shows there as a gap to fill.
Filmed on a demo school
The class in the film, 9-B with its subjects, was created for real on a demo school and removed afterwards.
