Subjects

The Subjects page is where you build the master list of subjects taught at your school — Mathematics, English, Physics, and so on. Creating a subject here doesn't teach it anywhere by itself; it just makes it available to link to classes.

Accessing Subjects

1. Click Subjects in the sidebar navigation
2. View all subjects

Subjects Overview

The header shows a running total of how many subjects exist. Below it is a table listing every subject with its name, code, grade levels, description, and status.

Searching

Use the Search by name or code... box to filter the list as you type.

Creating a Subject

1. Click Add subject
2. Fill in the dialog
3. Click Create subject

Subject Details

Field	Required	Description
Name	Yes	e.g. "Mathematics" — at least 2 characters
Code	Yes	Short code, e.g. "MATH"
Grade levels	No	Tick which grades this subject applies to
Description	No	Optional notes, up to 500 characters

TIP

Grade levels come from the grades already in use on your Classes page — if you haven't created any classes yet, this list is empty. Leaving every grade unchecked means the subject applies to all grades rather than none.

There's no separate curriculum-framework or active/inactive field in the create or edit form — every subject you create is active. The Status column always shows Active unless the subject was made inactive some other way.

Managing Subjects

Editing a Subject

Click anywhere on a subject's row to open the edit dialog, update the name, code, grade levels, or description, and click Save changes.

Deleting a Subject

1. Open the ⋯ menu at the end of the row
2. Choose Delete
3. Confirm

Deleting a subject permanently removes it and breaks the link for any class currently using it. This can't be undone.

Analyzing a Subject

Choose Analyze (school-wide) from the ⋯ menu to see performance across every class that teaches this subject.

Linking a Subject to a Class

Adding a subject here does not automatically make it gradeable anywhere — a subject only becomes active for a specific class once it's linked to that class with a teacher on the class's own page.

That linking happens on the Subjects & teachers tab inside each class, not here. Open Classes, click into a class, and use that tab to:

• Pick a teacher for each of your school's subjects (or leave one Unassigned)
• Save the assignment

Only subjects linked to a class this way appear in that class's gradebook, report cards, student enrolment matrix, and — once a subject is linked — as an option when adding a Timetable slot for that class. See the Classes page for the full step-by-step.

WARNING

If a subject isn't showing up as an option somewhere in a class (gradebook, timetable, enrolment), the fix is almost always the same: go to that class's Subjects & teachers tab and link it there. Creating the subject on this page alone isn't enough.

Best Practices

1. Set up subjects before classes — so they're ready to link when you build out each class
2. Use consistent codes — short, recognizable codes make the timetable and gradebook easier to scan
3. Cover your grade range — leaving grade levels blank applies a subject everywhere, which is usually only right for a handful of subjects
4. Link before you grade — a subject sitting only on this page can't be graded until it's linked to a class with a teacher
