The Custom Student Fields feature is a crucial tool that empowers you to store additional information about your students, catering to the unique needs of each school.

Administrators can effortlessly create new fields, and Teach 'n Go will seamlessly integrate these fields into all student profiles. Your school can add as many custom fields as necessary to capture the specific information required.

Follow these steps to add a new custom student field:

  1. Navigate to the School Setting page and find the 'Custom Student Fields' option on the left-hand menu.

2. Click on 'Custom Student Fields'; at the bottom, you'll find an option to add a new field. Provide a name and choose the type of field:

  • Textbox for text fields

  • Single or multiple choice dropdown for selecting from options

  • Checkbox for capturing true/false

  • Date box for accurate data capture

3. The custom field will now be visible on the Add or Edit student profile pages, appearing above the 'Other Details' section. Admins can update the value of this field just like any other field on the student profile.

4. If a custom field is no longer needed, it can be deleted from the School Settings page. However, note that this action will delete student data related to that field.


Once custom fields are added, you can leverage them for various purposes, including:

Custom Student Fields Visibility

While creating the custom fields, there are options to decide who has visibility of the custom field information that is captured. There are options to allow it to be seen by admins only or if you want students and related contacts to see it in their portal account.

The Custom Student Fields feature enhances the flexibility and functionality of Teach 'n Go, allowing schools to tailor student information management to their specific requirements.
