CSV For bulk Student import

General CSV Import / Export

Any spreadsheets being uploaded must be exported to CSV format; The process for this will differ depending on your spreadsheet editor.

The first row of an imported CSV should contain the names of the fields being imported, each row after should contain the data for a single imported record e.g:

First NameSurnameEmail
AliceAlisonalice.alison@example.com
BobBobsonbob.bobson@example.com
CharlesCharlesoncharles.charleson@example.com

The importer will fail to import any column that has spaces before or after the field name in the first row.
