Customising your Navigation Bar

  • This article explains how to customise your Navigation Bar, adjusting the Tabs that appear and the order in which they appear.

  • The Navigation Bar is at the top of the screen and visible from all screens:


Tabs

  • Tabs are shortcuts to the various screens you use.

  • When you log in to Schoolworks for the first time you will see a series of default Tabs, some of which you may not need for your role, while others that you will need may be missing.

  • You may wish to customise the Navigation Bar for how you want to work - you can add, remove or change the order of the Tabs.

  • Note: Although there are Tabs called Enrolments and Bookings, please do not use these to create or change enrolments and / or bookings. Enrolments and bookings should always be accessed from the Student Account record.

Adding Tabs to the Navigation Bar

  • On the right hand side of the Navigation Bar is a small pencil icon. Click on this to edit the Navigation Bar.

  • This will display a list of all the Tabs that are currently visible in your account:
