Term Curriculum Blocks

StaxLearn organises all curriculum content into permanent term blocks. This means the topics, lesson notes, quiz banks, and flashcards you create for First Term are stored separately from Second Term content — they never overwrite each other.

Switching Between Terms

On the Curriculum Dashboard, use the term tabs at the top — First Term, Second Term, Third Term — to switch the view. Topic counts and lesson note progress are shown for the selected term.

Inside a subject (after clicking Manage Topics), a term switcher in the header lets you navigate between terms for that subject.

Working in a Non-Current Term

You are free to prepare content for upcoming terms even while the current school term is active. For example, you can upload a Second Term scheme of work and generate lesson notes during First Term.

When you are viewing a non-current term, a yellow warning banner is shown:

⚠ You are viewing Second Term content. Students currently see First Term.

This reminds you that the content you are editing is NOT yet visible to students. It will only become available to students when the school administrator advances the platform to that term.

Uploading a Scheme of Work

1. On the Curriculum Dashboard, click the correct term tab for the term you are preparing.
2. Click Upload Scheme of Work on a subject card.
3. The AI parses your document into a topic tree for review.
4. After you confirm, all topics are permanently associated with that term's curriculum block.

Why This Matters

Before this system was introduced, uploading a new scheme of work would overwrite existing topics. Now, each term has its own isolated block. This means:

• First Term content is always preserved when you prepare for Second Term.
• You can review or edit past terms' content at any time.
• Student progress is always scoped to the current active term.
