Set Up a Class with Students and Seating Rules

Every Kredits app — Seating, Grouper, Scoreboard, Markbook — reads from the same class list. Set it up properly once in Class Editor and every other app just works.

1. Open Class Editor

   Sign in to Kredits and go to the Class Editor app from the Hub or the sidebar.
2. Create a new class

   Click "New Class" and give it a name — it appears instantly in your class list.
3. Add students

   Click "Add Student" to build the class list one name at a time, or link the class to Google Classroom to import it automatically.
4. Set seating rules

   Under Seating Rules, add "Keep Apart" pairs for students who shouldn't sit or work together, and "Keep Together" pairs for students who should. Seating's Auto-Place and Grouper both follow these pairs.
5. Link to Google Classroom (optional)

   Click "Link to Google Classroom" to connect this class to a real Classroom course for Markbook sync and class list imports.
6. Add pupil data (Kredits Pro, optional)

   With Data rich turned on in Settings → Pupil data, the Pupil data tab takes your school's SIMS marksheet export (.xml, .xlsx or .csv) or hand edits: SEN level and need, medical, allergies, exam access, FSM, EAL, stanines and notes. It is kept encrypted on your own computer, never on Kredits' servers, and deleted each 31 August. Use Download all classes to move it to another computer. Old SEN, Medical and EAL ticks and notes from before are moved into pupil data automatically the first time a Pro account opens Class Editor or Seating on its own computer.
7. Use the class everywhere

   The class list you set up here feeds straight into Seating, Grouper, Scoreboard, Picker and Markbook — no need to re-enter anything.
