Extra time in the exam module

When we print out the invigilator printouts, iSAMS rounds DOWN the extra time. This is incorrect and against JCQ rules. The time needs to be rounded UP so that the candidates get the correct amount of time added. Please see the attached.

In teacher cover view can secondary come before primary to save clicking over.

In our school, as I imagine lots of schools secondary use iSAMS for cover a lot more than primary. Would it be possible on teacher cover view for the default to be secondary as opposed to each day everyone having to click over to secondary? (i.e. ...

Add student school email address to a gradebook

We are trying to restrict the places where teaching staff have to go to where they can find pupil information. To stop duplicate of information it would be really helpful if this was an option.

Allow "Cover Note" to be able to be added to the email template for emailing out cover

It would be really helpful if additional information about the cover (that we currently include in Cover Note) could be one of the fields we can add to our email template for emailing out cover to staff. Currently this field is only viewable in th...

Consistency and Clarity Between Managing Absences and Unavailable Staff

The consistency of screens across iSAMS makes a huge difference to its useability. Likewise, providing on-screen cues as to default or currently-selected settings also makes a difference to useability. We were finding that staff marked unavailable...

Incomplete reports to be included in Grading Matrix

I am sure there used to be a tick box that allowed us to include Incomplete reports in the grading matrix? Has that been taken away? For example, we are now collecting end of year reports. There was an earlier deadline for teachers to complete the...
