Every class, its subjects, and a teacher for each. You will put subjects on a class, and give each subject its teacher.

> **Note:** Sign in to HTT Schools as an administrator of your school to follow these steps.

## Step by step

### 1. Open Results

Subjects live on the Results page, because marks and report cards are built from them. Choose Results from the menu.

*Step 1: Open Results*

### 2. Pick a class

Each class has its own list of subjects. Pick the class — we will use J S S 1.

### 3. The list

Here are the subjects J S S 1 takes. Core subjects are taken by every pupil; electives, like the religious studies, only by those who choose them. If you adopted a curriculum on the Curriculum page, its subjects were put on every class for you — here you adjust a single class.

*Step 3: The list*

### 4. Why a teacher

Each subject’s teacher is the one person, besides an administrator, who can enter its marks. Basic Science has no teacher yet.

### 5. Assign a teacher

Open the Teacher list on its row, and choose who teaches it. It is saved straight away.

*Step 5: Assign a teacher*

### 6. Still there after reload

Reload the page, and the teacher is still there. Joseph can now enter Basic Science marks for J S S 1, and only this class’s.

### 7. Add subjects

To add a subject to the class, press Add subjects. Tick any of the school’s subjects the class does not take yet.

*Step 7: Add subjects*

### 8. A brand-new subject

If the school does not teach a subject yet, type its name and a short code here and press Create — it joins the list for every class.

### 9. Added

Press Add, and the subject is on the class.

*Step 9: Added*

### 10. Remove a subject

To take a subject off a class, press the bin on its row. A subject that already has marks this year cannot be removed, so no marks are ever lost.

### 11. Unassign

And if a teacher leaves, choose Not assigned. Until someone new is given the subject, only an administrator can mark it.
