The Add New Learner function is used when a learner joins mid-year, returns after leaving, or transfers from another school.
My School > People > Learners > Learners: Add New Learner
How do I re-admit a learner who previously left? Use the Re-admit function from the Learner Overview screen — do not register them as a new learner, as this creates a duplicate record.
How do I capture a transfer from another school? Register as a new learner and capture the previous school's name in the transfer field during registration.
