Removing Students from a Class
As MINTclass pulls data such as teaching groups and classes from your school MIS, any permanent changes to classes must be made from within your school MIS.
Removing Students
From time to time you may wish to remove a student from your current class, for example when a student attends a music or additional study lesson.
Hover over the student you wish to remove from the class and click on 'Remove Student' as indicated by the arrow above. You will be asked to confirm the removal of the student, click on OK.
Note: When you remove a student from a class it is for that class only, if classes are linked it still only applies to that lesson, and the student is removed until you place the student back into the lesson.
Adding Pupils to a Class
As with removing students from a class, you can, of course, add students to a class. This can be useful for a temporary change in classes or for something like internal exclusion.
You can search for students by either clicking on the 'Manually Add Students' button on the left of the screen (if they are in that lesson or group) or by selecting the 'Student' tab from the top left of the screen.
You will need to know at least which year the student is in and then either the subject or the class code to enable a basic search. We are going to find a student that is in a year 9 Art class to add to our current class.
Basic Search
This will display all students that are in the selected year and subject. You can now add a student to the plan by using drag and drop. You can search by Surname or Forename as well.
When you add a student to a class, that student may show a small exclamation mark by their picture as shown below:
This would usually show up when a student is in the wrong class or has left the school. If you have moved a student into a correct class and they are displaying the exclamation mark, you will need to contact your data manager so that they can update the change in your school's MIS which should remove the exclamation mark.
