Sep 01 2022 | 2 minutes read

A successful and exciting school year begins with excellent planning. There are, however, things that must be done to ensure a smooth transition into the new academic year.

The beginning of every school year or academic session is one that requires ample preparation for all the activities and events that will take place within the session. A successful and exciting school year is one that begins with excellent preparation and with keen foresight to manage all contingencies. At Prodigy School Suite, we are always ready to assist schools in easing into the new academic year by providing necessary information and tips that promote ease, effectiveness, and efficiency throughout the new academic session.

6 Things to Do to Get the School Portal Ready for the New Academic Year:

1. Promote students to new classes on the school portal; move or transfer students who have graduated from your primary school location to the secondary without re-registration
2. Switch your school portal to the new academic session and term
3. Set up the online admission form for the new academic session
4. Generate bills for the new term and send them to parents through the school portal. Parents can also access the bills through their own portal accounts. Bear in mind that students MUST be promoted to their new and next classes before bills should be generated on the portal
5. Set up scheme for the academic term and upload lesson notes
6. Set up class timetables for the new academic term

Remember that our team is always available to help.

“The first day of school is our second New Year. It is our day to make resolutions, to look backward to former lapses and triumphs, and to look ahead, usually with a mix of anxiety and hope, to the year to come.”
