To add a whole class at once, use Add Bulk Data. Download Circin's dummy file, fill it in, save it as a CSV, choose the class section, and upload — every student in the file is created in one step.

How do I import students from a file?

  1. Open Academic Management → Students → Add Bulk Data.
  2. Click Download Dummy File to get the template. As the on-screen note says: first download the dummy file and convert it to a .csv file, then upload it.
  3. Fill the template with your students' details and save it as a CSV.
  4. Back on the page, choose the Session Year (defaults to 2026-27) and the Class Section.
  5. Under File Upload, click Upload and select your CSV file.
  6. Optionally tick Send Email to notify the imported students.
  7. Click Submit to create the students.

Tip: Keep the template's column order intact — matching the dummy file exactly is what lets Circin map each row to the right student field.
