Confirm Schools
This is the fourth step of the school year rollover. Here you review last year's block schools and feeder patterns and confirm them for the new year.
First: is your school roster settled?
Opening a new school, closing one, or changing the grades a school serves is handled by our team, not on this step. If any of that happened this year, open a Helpdesk Ticket and wait for us to confirm the changes are complete before you confirm here. Otherwise your feeder patterns and block schools will be lined up against a school list that is about to change.
The step asks you to tick one of two statements before continuing:
- We have no new or closed schools and no grade-configuration changes this year.
- Helpdesk has confirmed the school changes we requested are complete.
Block schools
Select any schools that run semester (4x4) classes. Only active schools are offered.
This flag changes how a school's benchmark scores are grouped, so it is worth getting right rather than leaving at last year's answer if a school has changed its schedule.
Feeder patterns
For each feeder school, confirm which school its banked scores belong to. The dropdown pre-selects whichever banked school is currently in effect for that feeder, so leaving it alone keeps last year's answer.
Only active schools are offered as new choices. If a feeder's current banked school has since been closed, it still appears for that feeder so you can see what is actually resolving, but it is not offered to any other feeder.
Unchanged answers write nothing
Confirming a feeder whose banked school has not changed records nothing new. Last year's mapping simply keeps applying. Only an actual change is written against the new year.
Not sure something is right?
If a school is missing, or one is listed that should be closed, stop and open a Helpdesk Ticket. Confirming this step against a stale school list is harder to unpick later than waiting.
