Exam seating and invigilation features

For each exam day and sitting, the students who write a paper are seated room by room, with a seat number each. A student can be moved to another seat, or the whole sitting seated again from the start. Each room gets its invigilator, and nobody can be given two rooms at the same time.

This module is part of Patashala360, school management software for Indian schools. It works on the same records as the other school ERP modules, so the office never types the same detail twice.

  • Seating for each exam day and sitting
  • Students seated room by room, with seat numbers
  • Move one student, or seat the whole sitting again
  • An invigilator for each room
  • No invigilator given two rooms at the same time
  • Teachers see their invigilation duties in the app, once it launches

How it works

  1. Pick the sitting

    Choose the exam day and sitting. The published papers of that sitting are seated.

  2. Seat the rooms

    Students who write a paper are seated room by room, each with a seat number. Move one student, or seat the sitting again.

  3. Name the invigilators

    Give each room its invigilator. A teacher already invigilating at that time cannot be given a second room.

Exam seating and invigilation: common questions

Can we move one student after seating?

Yes. Move a single student to another seat, or seat the whole sitting again from the start.

Can a teacher be put in two rooms by mistake?

No. A teacher already invigilating at that time cannot be given another room.

Do teachers see their duties?

Yes, in the Patashala360 staff app. Launching soon on Android and iPhone.
