Frequently asked questions

Why does the Submit button not respond?

Every formula block (SBA/Exam) must have at least one term before the system considers the formula mathematically valid and allows saving.

Can I carry formulas over to the new year?

Yes. During the year-end roll process, tick the Copy Formulas checkbox under My School > Curriculum > Copy Learning Programmes.
