Import students from Excel

Prepare a sheet, validate required fields, and bulk-import your roster.

Bulk import saves days of manual entry if your sheet is clean.

Before you import

  • One row per student with a unique admission number.
  • Guardian phone in a consistent format (include country code where possible).
  • Class and section must match what you configured for the academic year.

Import flow

Download the template from the student import screen, map your columns, and upload. The system flags duplicates and missing required fields before anything is committed.

After import

Spot-check 15–20 random students and verify guardian SMS numbers. Then proceed to Mark daily attendance.
