Campus

Student's campus.

Year Level

Student year level.

For NZ MOE roll returns, the Year Level is used for the current year level.

Schooling Year Offset

Schooling year offset against the year level, if the student has advanced, skipped or repeated a year level.

For example, a student that has:

  • advanced a year level has an offset of -1
  • repeated a year level has an offset of +1.

For NZ MOE roll returns, the Year Level and Schooling Year Offset are used to determine a student's funding year level. See Funding year levels in the Roll returns manual.

Form

Allocated student form.

Note: Maintain the values in the luForm lookup table. See luForm lookup table in the System maintenance manual.

Tutor Group

Allocated student tutor group.

For example, students may meet with their tutor before the first period to receive information about forthcoming events and other matters.

Note: Maintain the values in the luTutor lookup table. See luTutor lookup tablein the System maintenance manual.

House

Allocated house group.

Note: Maintain the values in the luHouse lookup table. See luHouse lookup table in the System maintenance manual.

Learning Pathway

Student's learning pathway. For example, International Baccalaureate.

Note: For information about defining learning pathways, see the luLearningPathway lookup table. See luLearningPathway lookup table.

Note: This field is used to report student learning pathway selections to the Queensland Curriculum and Assessment Authority (QCAA). This information is included in the Register New Student File, which can be exported for submission to the QCAA using the QCAA tab of the Import/Export Student Data window. See Import_Export Student Data - QCAA tab.

Boarder

Student's residential status. Typical values include:

  • Boarder
  • Day Student
  • Home Stay.

Note: You can use the luBoarder lookup table to maintain entries. See luBoarder lookup table in the System maintenance manual.

For NZ MOE roll returns, the boarding status of students is required. That is, whether or not they are a boarder. This also affects the student's zoning status; a student boarding at the school hostel cannot be out-of-zone, so Zone Status is set to Not applicable. See Current Student Maintenance - NZMOE tab, Zone status in the Roll returns manual.

Boarding House

Boarder's residence, if applicable.

FTE

Full-time equivalent, if student is not full- time.

For NZ MOE roll returns, the FTE is used to determine a student's part-time or full-time status when fixing errors. See Roll return errors and warnings in the Roll returns manual.
For NZ MOE roll returns, FTE is calculated by adding together class contact hours, dividing by 20 and rounding to one decimal point.
For NZ MOE roll returns, FTE must be 1.0 for all students in Years 1-8 and all students aged <16 in Year 9 above unless the student is an external student (that is, student type EM).

The Important Data Change window is displayed when the field is changed in New Zealand schools.

Enter the reason for the change in the Reason for Change field. This is required by the NZMOE auditors. Changes can be previewed on the Student Change of Status Report (For Roll Returns).
