Help on this page
The family manager function is intended to assist in quickly performing common family management activities through one easy to use screen. The available functions are:
- Join parent
Allows you to the 'other parent' or an existing parent known to the system to an existing family (e.g. marriage). - Split family
Enables you to remove one member of the 'main' family and make them an 'other' parent (typically used for a divorce). - Add other parent
Lets you add a new or existing parent as an 'other' parent. - Remove other parent
Provides a function to remove the 'other' parent. - Switch main family
Switches the main Family (and parents) to be the Other Family (and parent). Typically used when custody arrangements change. - Change student family
Enables you to move a student from one family to another. This is useful where you have added siblings without realising they are related and allows you to simply move them into the same family.
