Adding a branch

If your school opens another campus that runs separately, add it as a branch. Each branch has its own students, classes, fees and staff, and its own subscription.

Branches are added by the school owner, from the Individual Edition. A school server sets up its first branch only.

Adding a branch

  1. Sign in to the Individual Edition as the school owner.
  2. Open the menu in the title bar and choose Add another branch.
  3. Step 1 of 3: About the branch. Enter the branch's name, mobile number, city, state and full address, and add a logo. The full address is required, because each branch is a separate place.
  4. Step 2 of 3: Classes. Choose the branch's class structure and remove any classes it does not run.
  5. Step 3 of 3: Assessment. Choose how the branch assesses each term.

The branch is created online and on your computer, with the same ready-made settings as a new school. See What Academium sets up for you.

Academic sessions are shared by the whole school, so a new branch uses the sessions that already exist.

Changing your mind

On the first step nothing has been created yet, so leaving simply returns you to the app. After that, cancelling removes the half-built branch, so it does not appear unfinished in your branch switcher. Your other branches are not touched.

Switching between branches

Use the branch chip in the title bar. See School branches.

Common issues

"Add another branch" is not in the menu. Only the school owner can add branches, from the Individual Edition, signed in to the school.
