When uploading files to "Documents & Files" for either current pupils or those joining the school, it would be helpful to be able to drag and drop the documents into the document upload window. We have quite a few files to get through, and any...
Adjustment to the Leaving School Year value for clarity
Looking at our historic data when Leaving Year is entered using pupil manager some staff have become confused as which year needs to be selected and used the calendar year rather than the school year as only a year e.g. 2024 is shown. In "teaching...
academic reports into "Docs and files" - auto save

We are constantly sending emails to multiple parents that require different information for a particular student. Doing a mail merge in Outlook is time-consuming because we first have to gather the data from iSAMS, transfer it to Excel, and then u...
