      • To Search for a Group of Pupils - From the first drop list, select the group type you want, e.g. 'Form', 'Subject Set' or 'Pupil Custom Group', and from the second drop list, select the person's specific group, e.g. 'Form 10A', 'Lower Sixth', 'Ski Trip 2019' etc. Your selection in the first drop list alters the options available in the second drop list.

        Example: In the example below, 'Form' has been selected in the first drop list. Consequently, a list of forms in the school appears in the second drop list.
