Add students

Create student records, link their guardians, and optionally start a pre-inscription.

A student record holds a child's personal, medical, and family details. Adding a student is the first step before they can be enrolled into a class. Every student must be linked to at least one guardian.

Who this is for

Administrators onboarding students and their families.

Before you start

  • Have the student's name and gender ready — these are required.
  • Have at least one guardian to link. You can pick an existing guardian or add a new one inline from this form.
The Students page lists every student at your school.
