Making "shared" weightings visible on child gradebooks

We logged a ticket with the technical support on this and they have advised that this is a feature request which is strange because we don't think the way it currently is set up adds any value/nor makes sense. If you have a "parent" or master grad...

Desired Teaching Load

Most schools will have an idea how many classes they want each staff member to teach. It would be great if this could be stored in Teaching Manager or Timetable manager. It could be really helpful in Cover Manager, working out who should be first ...

Avoiding putting students in more than one set

There is nothing to prevent a student being inadvertently put into more than one set in a year group for a particular subject. It would be really useful if this could be blocked, or a flag be given, or a pop-up warning or a coloured line in the Ad...

Our Data Analyst is looking into API batch documentation in preparation for us using Gradebooks more comprehensively then we currently are. When he looks on the developer.isams website there is no mention of Gradebooks in any of the Documentation sections.
