Welcome back to all the schools that are getting ready for their September starts. Please do look at the rollover guides, and start this process as early as possible. The team have been reaching out to organise meetings, so please check your support channel and let us know if we can help.
In the meantime, the team are finalising some great projects which are due for release imminently;
Update to VLE
The course resources/VLE module has undergone a change to make it easier for course/class Educators to access information, log events, and even take attendance. All of this is available on one screen, adapted to handheld and mobile use. No need anymore to switch between the different pages to update your student's information.
We will keep you updated when the module is due for release. Subscribe to the updates page to be notified on release.
Staff birthday widget
Schools can contact our support team to activate the new staff birthday widget. This will only apply to staff user profiles who are active and have a date of birth entered. The layout is the same as the student widget.
Behaviour events
We have added preset ranges to the event timeout. These will show periods from your active timetables. The start/end will be populated with the appropriate time of these periods.
Assessment report
When schools chose to show an attendance percentage, we noticed that the % sign was not added. We have added this and it now shows on the new assessment report builder.
We have added some options for our BC marketplace to include the TRAX code in the course header on our report card builder.
If you are using course custom fields, these can be shown on your report cards. In subject specifications, we have added the option 'Show course session custom fields'.
These custom fields can be used to show target grades or course references.
We have added preset ranges to the bulk learning outcome update functionality. You can set LO date ranges to your school's term configuration in one simple click.
Holiday management
When holidays are created, users had the option to cancel the scheduled courses for that day. We have also now added the possibility to delete attendance that has been taken for those days.
Staff calendar
We have updated the staff calendar to show events outside of the academic year settings. These events can be planned up to the start of the new scholastic year.
