Subject Groups are academic clusters used to group learners who attend the same subject together. Unlike Register Classes (used for administration and attendance), Subject Groups are strictly for academic delivery, mark capture and timetabling.

How do I manage group details?

• Marks Capturers: Click the number to add or remove staff with permission to enter marks for the group (move names between Available and Assigned columns).

Frequently asked questions

Why can’t I create a Subject Group for a specific subject?

The subject must first be allocated to the grade in Step 1 of the Learning Programme Setup before a Subject Group can be created for it. The system follows a hierarchy: Subject > Subject Group > Learner Allocation.

What is the difference between making a group Inactive vs Deleted?

Inactive hides the group but preserves all data and can be reversed. Deleted is permanent — it removes the underlying database pointers and cannot be undone. Use Inactive to temporarily hide groups.
