KEEP THIS BESIDE YOU

The steps, in writing.

Add the new session in Settings, Academic Years, with your school's dates (each session can exist only once), then add its first and second semesters inside the session's dates, and fix dates later with Edit. Set the new session current, and the dashboard, fees, results and timetables follow it. Primary and secondary schools add three terms on the same page.

Add the academic year
Open Academic Years and enter the new session and its dates. A session can only be created once; edit an existing entry instead of adding a duplicate.
Add terms or semesters
Open the session and add its terms or semesters. Keep their dates within the academic year's dates.
Correct dates when they change
Use Edit on the relevant term or semester to adjust its dates.
Make the session current
Set the new session current when your school is ready to move to it. Check the session shown on the dashboard before working with fees, results or timetables.
