A calmer term opening: the administrator’s checklist
Prepare periods, classes, staff, invoices and portals before families return.
Published 11 August 2026 · SchoolPora product team
Close the previous period
Approve final marks, publish required reports and record promotions before moving learners. Keep exceptions visible rather than silently changing history.
Prepare structures first
Open the new term, check class and subject assignments, then enrol learners. This order prevents invoices, timetables and attendance from pointing to the wrong period.
Test the family journey
Use one test guardian account to verify the invoice, receipt, attendance and report-card experience on a phone.
Set a support route
Tell staff where to report access issues and what reference details to include. Never ask them to share a password or OTP.
Prepare your own SchoolPora rollout
Create a private 30-day workspace or request a walkthrough for your team.
