Learn how to manually add a new student to your school on SkoolWisely.
Adding a Student Manually
You can add students to SkoolWisely one at a time — ideal when enrolling a new student
mid-term or when your list is small. All you need is a few basic details about the student.
If you have many students to add at once, see
Importing Students in Bulk for a faster approach.
Step-by-Step
- From your dashboard, click Student Management in the left menu.
- Click the "Add Student" button at the top right.
- Fill in the student's details:
- First Name & Last Name (required)
- Date of Birth (required)
- Gender (required)
- Registration Number — your school's unique ID for the student (auto-generated)
- Class — select the class the student belongs to
- New Admission (turn on, if the student got admitted in the current term)
- Click "Next".
The student will immediately appear in your student list and be ready for fee invoice
generation.
Adding Guardian Information
After saving the student, you will be prompted to link a parent or guardian. This step
is important so that fee invoices and reminders are sent to the right person.
See Linking Parents & Guardians for full instructions.
Tips
- The Registration Number must be unique for each student.
- If a class is not showing in the dropdown, make sure you have created it under
Class Management → Classes first.
- You can always edit a student's details later from their profile page.
Make sure the student's name is spelled correctly — it will appear on all invoices
and receipts sent to parents.
