Option blocks drive everything else
IGCSE students choose subject combinations that determine timetable grids, lab allocations, and exam seating. When a student swaps History for Geography mid-year, three departments need the same update.
Spreadsheet timetables hide conflicts until the first week of term. Connected scheduling flags clashing blocks before publish.
Option group tags link classes to exam sessions so May/June and Oct/Nov series lists generate from live enrollment.
Three-term British-pattern calendars
Most IGCSE schools run Michaelmas, Lent, and Trinity-style terms - or local names with the same boundaries. Fee installments and report cycles anchor to those dates.
Half-term breaks and inset days belong in the holiday master so attendance summaries count working days correctly.
End-of-term report publish aligns to parent consultation evenings on the shared events calendar.
Cambridge exam session management
Mock exams, component sittings, and final series need separate session records with invigilation rosters and hall assignments.
Seating plans pull from enrolled classes rather than manually typed candidate lists. Late entries or withdrawals update counts before materials orders go out.
Results publish gates control when families see component marks versus final grades.
IGCSE report templates and grade scales
Reports often show component marks, predicted grades, and effort comments per subject. Subject teachers enter; heads of year review before release.
Historical terms stay on the student profile for UCAS references and transfer requests to other Cambridge schools.
Bulk PDF export at publish replaces email attachments that never match the official template.
International fee patterns
Tuition, exam entry fees, and lab supplements appear as separate line items. Families expect installment schedules tied to term invoices.
Multi-currency awareness helps finance when expat parents pay while local accounts run in host-country currency.
Defaulter lists before report release or exam entry confirmation are standard bursar policy.
Families and mobile expat parents
Parent portals show timetable, fee receipts, and published reports without front-office calls. Exam timetables release scoped to the relevant year groups.
Multi-child logins matter in schools where siblings span primary checkpoints and IGCSE years.
Excursion and consent workflows integrate with the same guardian accounts used for fees.
Rollout before the exam series
Import roster and lock option blocks before timetable publish. Configure exam sessions before mock week - not during it.
Pilot gradebook entry with one year group; expand after publish drill succeeds.
Admissions and fees can go live a term ahead of full exam module use.
