Promoting Students
If you're starting a new term or year, you might need to consider promoting your students to the next level, and Classcard gives you the option to promote students by simply duplicating a batch.
You can always create a new batch by referring to the article on adding a batch, but if you want to promote the existing batch to the next level, follow the simple steps below.
Locate the People menu from the main menu options on the left side of your screen.
Click on Batches under Setup.
Click the Three-dot button on the row that corresponds to the batch you want to promote.
Choose the Duplicate Batch option to create a copy of the current batch, labeled with the prefix 'Copy of' followed by the batch name.
Note: You can then Edit the Batch name by clicking on the row and changing the name according to your preference, with the option to change the Commencement dates and Exclude the students for the promoted batch.
You could also promote students to a new batch with this alternative method:
Navigate to the Students tab under the People main menu.
Select the students you wish to promote by checking the boxes to the left of their names, and click on the Add to batch icon (denoted by a plus sign next to the silhouette of a person).
In the Add to batch pop-up, the existing batch names and details will be displayed. Simply click on the Add to batch button in the respective row to add the selected students to that particular batch.
You could also search for an existing batch or create a new one. Click on the Add batch option, enter the details and click Save. The new batch will be added to the list of existing batches. You can follow the previous step to add students to the same.
