How to create a block in Class List Manager (read time less than 2 minutes)

We’ve recently updated our top menu navigation (July 2024). We’re currently updating our user guides to reflect these changes, so thank you for your patience while we work on this. The new menu is user-friendly, so you shouldn’t experience significant disruption. If you need help locating specific items in the new menu however, watch our quick videos for admin users here, and for teachers here.

The first step to create a block is to visit 3 lines > Current Timetable > Teaching Groups. In Teaching groups, you can select the year you want to create your block, e.g. 3rd Year.

Here, you will see a number of columns, including the block column. In this column, you will specify the name of your block.

In the above picture, you will see your teaching group screen, the teaching group you are editing, your block column and the name/number of the block you have created.

Blocks can be edited at anytime by clicking on the edit pencil button beside the teaching group in question.

Once you have inputted the name of the block you have created e.g. 'Block 1', you can go ahead and save the changes you have made by clicking update.

To see your completed work, you can go to the class list manager window (3 lines > current timetable > class list manager).

In this class list manager window you can see the selected year: 3rd year and the specified block: Block 1: 3Art-9.1

Both of these options are found using the drop-down menus 'Select a Year' and 'Select a Grouping'.

Therefore, your block column was successfully created and is now visible.

If needed, you can now add students to the teaching group within your block. The class lists of this block are always editable within this screen.
