Setting up classes and students
Go to our Manage tab and select manage students / classes and being the 2016/17 Whole school setup
The video shows how to get the data from SIMS fast. Note: It is important to have your CSV file in the correct format using the headers
shown and Date of birth format set to DD/MM/YY
Attach and upload the file here
This next step will breakdown your upload

New students: Anyone that has joined the school or who doesn’t already have a Hegartymaths account.
Existing: These are the students who are moving up a year group
Potential duplicates: A slight change in an existing student's name between this year's and last year's uploads means our system can't be certain as to whether that student is an existing or new student and
so will categorise them as 'potential duplicates'. We’ll give YOU the chance to tell our system if the student is an existing student so we can connect to last year's account and retain the student's prior
data. This requires the students DOB is accurate at all times.
You will be required to either merge students with the same DOB or to create a new student
If you look at the above example, the hyphen in the name confused HegartyMaths so we needed your help to tell us whether to merge the
data with an exiting student account or create a new student
Top tip: This is the time to do a little
check of your classes to ensure everyone is where they are
supposed to be! A check of the class numbers useful at this stages well as picking a few
students whom you know are in particular classes.
Nothing is saved until you complete the process and put in
your password so you can always abort and contact us if
you are having problems
Next you will be shown students who are no longer in classrooms. These are likely school leavers but again we suggest you have a glance over and ensure there is
nobody unexpected in these lists
Finally, if you wish to keep any tasks/classes from last year then uncheck them. Otherwise, they will go into the archives (in the manage page). These can be
restored if you wish.
Nothing is permanent until you
do this last part!!!
Managing accounts and classes
Link yourself to a class for quick access to data and HW features
Change the class name or delete the class (This does not delete student data)
Add students to the class
This allows you to add a student that has an account to a class
Here, you can create a brand new student account and put them straight into a class
You can edit student names, DOB and reset passwords by clicking here
Setting up and managing teacher accounts
You can upload all teachers quickly using the CSV file with these exact headers
Or you can add them manually They should receive an activation email like you
Some useful links to reset password and resend activation emailYou can edit your own details in your Profile
Progress system
Progress is where you can view all your linked classes, export feedback given to students and generate a excel mark book for multiple classes.
Hover over the column headers to learn about the different metrics provided
Clicking on a row allows you to see more individualised data about the class and their progress so far in the 6 Strands
You can generate a full markbook for multiple classes for any date range provided - Great for showing the progress your classes are making!
