Release Version: 2.1
Below is a summary of what's new in this latest release
Family Connections
In this latest release, we felt is was more important to revisit how we ask about siblings, up until now, we asked the question "Do you have any future, present or past siblings that attended the school?" and stored the answer in the Siblings field as a Yes or a No. Feedback from school users was that they really wanted to know:
- Does a family have any future siblings that might attend the school?, or
- Are they a current family or not?
So, we decided to replace the current siblings field with a new Future Siblings field and added a new Family connection field.
These new fields now appear:
- as new options under the More... button in search
- as new fields on your Sign Up and Apply forms
- in a new Future Siblings Chart
- When you bulk edit fields in the student list screen
- When merging students on the student list screen
