SUBJECT GROUPS

SUBJECT GROUPS


  • A subject group is a term we use to group learners who have different subjects together. It is therefore not for register class purposes, but for academic purposes. 
  • This feature allows the user to create subject groups and then allocate them to classrooms and teachers.
An Excel Export function has been added on several screens. Look out for the "Excel Export" button. You need Excel Export user rights assigned by the Superuser to access these functions.

CREATE SUBJECT GROUPS

  • Select the year.
  • Select the grade.
  • Select the applicable learning program.
  • Select the applicable Term.
  • Click the +Add New- button to create a new subject group.
  • Group Name:  Type a Subject Group name. E.g. Gr 4B Eng HL.
  • Classrooms: Select the Classroom where this subject group will be attending the subject.  If a specific classroom doesn't appear in the drop-down list, go to My School | Staff | Classrooms and make sure it's active.
  • Teacher: Select the subject group teacher.  If a specific teacher doesn't appear in the drop-down list, go to My School | Staff | Staff and make sure he/she is active and that the main category is one of the education phases. E.g. Intermediate, FET, etc.
  • Tuition Language: Select the language in which this class will be taught. 
  • Status:  A new groups will indicate as "Active". To remove a group, indicate it as "Inactive" or "Deleted".
    Note: Inactive status can be re-activated, but if a group has been deleted, it can not be re-activated again.
  • Active Learners:  Indicate the number of learners allocated to this group.  To add learners click on the number or allocate at My School > Curriculum > Subject Group Allocation.
  • Non-Active Learners:  Indicate the number of learners that left the school, but who are still allocated to the subject group. They will therefore still be listed on the mark sheets.
  • Marks Capturers: Indicate the number of staff that has capturing rights for this subject group. Click on the number to see the names of these staff members. To remove specific staff, move their names to the left and "Submit" or add additional staff by moving their names to the right.

  • Add more subject groups for this subject if necessary.
  • When completed, click [Accept Changes]

2. LEARNING OUTCOME GROUPING

An exception may arise where one subject group is presented by more than one teacher. The subject group will have a primary teacher who will present the learning outcomes A, B, as well as a secondary teacher (the exception) who will present learning outcome C.  E.g.  History and Geography in Social Sciences.    In this step, you will only add or edit these exceptions. 
However, we find that this option causes a lot of complications, and do not recommend using it at this stage.
