Setting the subject level for each learner in your class is an important step in setting up your Gradebook. You can adjust the subject level for an individual learner or the entire class. Ideally, this should be done at the start of an academic year and before you add any gradebooks (you can always edit grades to adjust the levels if needed).
You can set the subject level for a learner at any time. For example, If a learner decides to move levels during an academic year. The level is stored with each assessment.
Note: the level is stored with each assessment. If you do not set a level then the lowest level will be attributed to a learner. When you update a level, it will only affect assessments from that point onward. It will not retrospectively update previous assessments (unless you go back in and edit them). Levels will carry over year after year within the same subject.
