Steps
- Open Students > Import students.
- Press Download template. Fill it in. Keep the column names.
- Choose your file. It must be .xlsx or .csv, up to 2000 rows and 5 MB.
- Read the table. Each row says Ready, Warning or Error, with a reason.
- Fix every Error in your file and choose it again. Errors block the whole import.
- For a likely duplicate, tick Skip likely duplicates or fix the row.
- If a parent already exists, choose Link to this family or Keep separate for the row.
- Press Import.
The page shows the GR numbers that were created. Press Go to students to see them. Recent imports lists earlier files.
Common questions
Why is the Import button grey?
The file still has errors, or a family choice is pending. Fix the rows that say Error and choose a family option for each matched row.
Does the import add fees?
No. Fees are not imported. Assign a fee structure afterwards under Fees > Fee structures.
