Using GroupWriter

GroupWriter is one of the most popular features in ReportComplete. It allows you to add a comment or generic block of text to a selected set of pupils.

• 

  1. Click the GroupWriter icon.

• 

  2. The top half of the screen will change to GroupWriter mode.

• 

  3. Clicking a pupil will either select or deselect them. The green pupils are selected, the blue pupil is the person you should write about in GroupWriter, e.g. keep the forename and gender-specific to them.

• 

  4. Once you have finished writing just click the bottom 'Add' button and the text will be copied into all the pupils selected in the pupil list. The text copied for each pupil will have their correct name and gender. GroupWriter will then be exited.

  6. You will see the new group button at the top of GroupWriter. Any pupils selected whilst that button is highlighted will automatically be saved to that group, if you deselect a pupil then they will be removed from that group. If you want to delete the saved group, then just click the 'Delete' button.
