Setting up your school

Groups

Organise people so assigning work is faster.

What you'll learn

  • Why groups help
  • How to use them when assigning

Step-by-step guide

  1. Create groups that match your school

    Examples: Mainstream Teachers, SET, SNAs, Leadership. Keep names familiar.

  2. Add the right people

    Place staff in the groups they belong to so you can assign an action once instead of picking names one by one.

Tips

  • Start with two or three groups. You can refine them after the first term of use.

Common questions

Is a group the same as a class list?

It can be, but many schools use groups for roles (for example all SNAs) rather than every classroom.
