From marks to report cards

Configure exams, enter and publish marks, generate report cards, print or release them, then let students and parents view results.

Steps

  1. Register learner subjects - Learner subjects
    • Select class/stream and tick subjects per learner before any marks run.
    • Tip: empty subject registrations are the #1 cause of empty report cards.

  1. Configure exams - Exams & marks
    • On Exams, create or Edit the exam (class, type, max marks), save, then leave unpublished until sheets are ready.
    • Tip: use Create AOI exam when that workflow applies. Wrong max marks break grade totals later.

  1. Enter marks - Marks & exams (or Admin Marks Entry)
    • Filter class, stream, subject, and exam; use Enter marks online or template download/upload.
    • Click Save changes.
    • Tip: AOI is out of 20; report card T1 scales it. Unpublished marks never appear on cards.

  1. Publish marks (Admin on Exams & marks)

    • Select the exam → Publish only after all teachers finished.
    • Tip: class performance and merit views are misleading until publish completes.
  2. Generate report cards - Admin Report cards (Interaction Fidelity path) or teacher Report cards

    • From Reports & printouts open the Report cards card, or go to /admin/report-cards.
    • Open Academic year, pick the year (example seed 2025/2026), open Term, then Generate report cards and finish the wizard.
    • Tip: the exam dropdown is preview-only; cards average the term. Missing photos use gender placeholders.

  1. Print / release - same Report cards screen (Print selected)
    • Print selected cards or Print report cards - choose whether to sign every page with your profile e-signature - then Release term to students (teachers: for their class).
    • Tip: printing before release confuses parents who expect the portal to match paper.

  1. Student and parent view
    • Student opens My Report; parent opens Results.
    • Tip: if the portal is blank, re-check publish, release, and year/term - not the print dialog.

Role handoff

Teachers enter marks and may generate, print, and release report cards for their assigned classes. Admin can still run school-wide generate/print/release. Student/Parent only view published, released results.

Common mistakes

  • Empty cards when learner subjects were never registered
  • Expecting unpublished marks on the card
  • Missing photo/gender placeholder surprises at print time
  • Generating before all teachers finished
  • Printing before term release
  • Treating the exam scores preview as the full term card
