Purpose

Open a coaching case for a student — either from a referral or from scratch.

Two ways to create

From a referral (most common)

  1. Cases → New (the referral inbox).
  2. Click a referral. Review the concern and student.
  3. Click Accept → Create case.

The case inherits the referral's concern type and notes. The referring teacher is automatically attached.

From scratch

  1. Cases → New case (top right).
  2. Pick a Student (or create one).
  3. Pick a Concern type and (optionally) a Source (parent, self-referral, etc.).
  4. Save.

What's in a case

  • A status (New → In progress → Monitoring → Closed).
  • An assigned facilitator (you, by default).
  • Optional co-facilitators.
  • An attached teacher (for visibility and feedback).

FAQ

Can a student have more than one open case? Yes — for example, one academic and one attendance case can run in parallel.

Who sees a brand-new case? The assigned facilitator, the attached teacher, and admins. See Roles & permissions.
