Admit student wizard

Full-page admit flow (not a small modal): three steps - Identity, Enrollment, Guardian - then optional Account credentials (copy now). Canonical routes are /secretary/students/admit (New Admission) and /admin/students/admit (Admit student). /secretary/admit redirects to the secretary path.

Who can use this​

  • ADMIN
  • SECRETARY

Path​

/secretary/students/admit (also /admin/students/admit; /secretary/admit redirects here)

Dependencies​

  • Classes and academic years exist (Classes, Academic calendar).
  • Prefer this wizard over inventing admission numbers offline.
  • After admit, register learner subjects before expecting report cards (subjects ticked on step 2 help, but office follow-up still matters).
