When a teacher changes mid-year, hand the subject and its marking to the new teacher
Change a subject's teacher in one pick. The class and its waiting answers move to the new teacher; the old teacher's marks stay on record.
Every screen in the films is the real product, shown on a demo school made for them.
Teachers leave, go on long leave or swap classes during the year. What worries the office is what gets lost in between: answers students have submitted that nobody has marked yet, and the record of who taught what. Here one change under Who teaches what moves the class and its waiting marking to the new teacher, and keeps the old record.
The film hands 10-A Science from Demo Teacher to Demo Teacher Two, then looks at both teachers' Homes and at the Teachers tab in Reports.

Good to know
Nothing is left with the old teacher
Answers still waiting for marking move with the class, so students are not left waiting on a teacher who no longer teaches them.
Leave is not a handover
Setting a teacher On leave under Teachers only changes their status; their classes stay with them. To move a class, change its teacher under Who teaches what, as here.
Filmed on a demo school
The change was real, on a demo school with demo teachers; the answers waiting were demo students' practice tests. Who teaches what was put back after filming.
