The Capture Learner Remarks feature allows users to assign pre-defined comments or type personalised messages for specific learners. Remarks can be applied at various levels — Term, Grade, Subject, Task or individual Learner — depending on where the comment should appear on the academic report.

My School > People > Learners > Learner Marks > Capture Learner Remarks

Pre-defined remarks must first be created in Curriculum > Databases > Set Up Remarks. Only remarks in that library will appear in the From Database list.

Frequently asked questions

Why can’t I add or edit remarks for a term?

If the term or academic cycle is locked, remarks cannot be added or edited. Once reports are finalised for distribution, the associated remarks are archived to protect data integrity.

Why don’t my new remarks appear in the database list?

New standardised remarks must be created in Curriculum > Databases > Set Up Remarks first. They cannot be created from within the Capture Learner Remarks screen. Custom personal remarks can always be typed directly in the Custom Remark tab.
