Move students between different classes or registration forms

You can move students between classes if they have actually moved classes, or a mistake was made when enrolling them that resulted in them being enrolled in the wrong class or registration form.

Permissions

  • Academic Structure: Administer - Add/edit/remove students in courses and automatic enrolments
  • Enrolment: Administer All/My Students - Manage students' enrolments into the school, and into their year groups, registration forms and houses
  • Pastoral Structure: Administer - Add/edit/delete year groups, houses, registration forms and add/remove students, tutors from registration forms and year groups.

If you don't have the permission, you'll need to ask your admin team to give you permission using these instructions.

Option 1 - Transferring the students to another class

Transferring from the class or registration form

To move them due to an actual class change (e.g. to improve behaviour), go to School > Programmes > this year Courses > Overview > Select the relevant class.

If you need to change registration forms, instead go to Students > Enrolment > Registration Forms > Select the registration form.

Scroll down to the Students section. Click the box next to the relevant student's name and click on the Bulk action button. Select Transfer Students.

In the slide over, select the new form and the transfer date. You can back-date the transfer date if needed, but we usually advise not to backdate if you have already taken attendance as you may need to adjust the student's marks. 

Please note, you can only select a form group linked to the same year.

The student will now show as a former student in their previous class, and will appear in the new class and the new class' register.

What to do if you can't transfer from here

If you can't transfer from within the course, you'll see the link symbol. This means they were enrolled as part of an automatic enrolment from a registration form or teaching group.

You'll need to go to the registration form in  Students > Enrolment > Registration Forms > Select the registration form or for a teaching group go to the teaching group in Students > Enrolment > Teaching groups > Select the teaching group. Make the transfer from there.

Option 2 - Deleting then re-adding the enrolment in case of mistake

If a child was added by mistake to a class, you might not be able to transfer them as you can only transfer to registration forms like to the same year. Instead, you'll need to delete the incorrect enrolment from their Student Profile in the Enrolment section.

What to do if you can't delete the enrolment from here

For some enrolments, these will have been done automatically from a teaching group or registration form group and you won't be able to delete the enrolment from here as they were enrolled automatically.

You'll need to click into the enrolment into the teaching group or registration form and edit that instead.

Redundant Marks

If you've been entering attendance marks for a student in a lesson they should have been removed from, you might have redundant marks on their profile. These appear because Arbor doesn't automatically delete any attendance marks, even when they're for sessions that a student has been removed from.

You may want to delete the redundant marks so they don't show on attendance certificates and don't impact their attendance - one removed their attendance statistics may change depending on which marks have been removed.
