How do I edit a MESHA assessment sitting?

To edit a MESHA assessment sitting:

1. Open the assessment from the Assessments page;
2. Select the sitting and click Edit sitting. 
3. From there you can change the date, time or length of the sitting, and add or remove students who haven't started yet.

Tip: Absent on the day? You can remove the student from the original sitting and set up a make-up sitting later, as long as it's still within the assessment window.

To change the date, time or length of a sitting

1. Click Assessments in the left-hand menu.
2. Click View assessment next to your MESHA assessment.
3. Under Assessment sittings, click the sitting you want to change.
4. Click Edit sitting in the top right-hand corner.

5. Update the start or end date and time. You can extend a sitting here if a class needs more time.
6. Save your changes.

⚠️ Note: The new date and time must still fall inside the assessment window.

To add students to a sitting

1. Open the sitting and click Edit sitting.
2. Add the class or individual students you need.
3. Save your changes.

If a student you're adding is already in another sitting, remove them from that sitting first. Each student can only be in one sitting.

To remove a student from a sitting

1. Open the sitting.
2. In the Student progress list, find the student.
3. Click the three-dot menu in the Actions column.
4. Click Remove from sitting.

⚠️ Note: You can only remove a student who hasn't started the assessment.

If a student is absent or unwell on assessment day

1. Remove the student from the class sitting, using the steps above (optional).
2. When you're ready to run a supervised make-up session, go back to the assessment page and click Create sitting.
3. Tick Set for specific students within a class, then select the students who were absent.
4. If those students haven't yet been removed from their previous sitting, they can be removed at this time, by clicking Remove from current sitting.
   
    
5. Set a date and time within the assessment window.
6. Click Create sitting to confirm.

Removing a student from an assessment once they have already started

Once a student has started the assessment, they cannot be removed from their sitting. This is to prevent accidental removal of assessment results during or following the assessment.

If needing to remove a student who has already started an assessment from their sitting, please email MESHA@edrolo.com with:

• Your school name.
• The name of the MESHA assessment.
• The class and sitting date you're trying to edit.
• What you're trying to change (for example, extending time or removing a student).
• The student's name, if the issue is about a particular student.
• A screenshot of the sitting page.
