Deleting a current student

If required, you can delete a current student from the Synergetic system. Deleting a student removes most of the information held about the student, such as contact details and scholarships. Although a community record stills exist for the student after the deletion has taken place it is strongly recommended that you do not continue unless you want to erase all records about the student.

Note: If a student has left the school it is preferable to transfer them to past students rather than to delete the record. See Transferring current students to past students (Next Year Process).
