How to add pupils

Infinity allows pupils to be rostered for the assignment of quizzes and tracking of results. Here are your options for getting started, along with some top tips for when you need to make changes. 

To allow Infinity to store quiz results, certain pupil data is needed to identify the pupils who are completing the quizzes you set.

To add pupils to Infinity, you will need to be logged in and have been assigned Infinity access by a manager of your membership group.

Open Infinity from the menu bar on your My account homepage. Then select ‘Pupils’ on the Infinity menu bar.

You have the option to upload pupil details in an Excel spreadsheet (.xslx format) or to connect your school’s MIS.

You can click to jump to a video demonstration, or to your preferred method:

MIS connection

If you choose to connect your school MIS, you will be guided through the information we require to request the connection through Wonde. Please be advised that setting up this connection can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks depending on whether you already use Wonde.

Once your school’s MIS is successfully connected, our Customer Care team will email you to confirm. You can begin assigning quizzes and tracking results right away.

The benefit of MIS integration is that it already exists and the school can be confident as to it's accuracy. Pupil information is updated automatically. Any updates made in your MIS to the pupils shared with Infinity will be updated within 24 hours, so there’s no need to make manual updates.

Excel upload

To upload pupil data in a spreadsheet, first download the template. The only data we require are the pupils’ first name, last name, date of birth, and what class they’re in.

Make sure not to change the column headers in the template; the upload won’t succeed if these have been altered.

Add the details of the pupils you would like to use Infinity with (up to maximum of the pupil bracket your school has purchased). Once you have entered the children’s details save and close the Excel file and return to the ‘Upload’ page.

Select ‘Upload Excel file’ and find your prepared spreadsheet to upload.

If there’s an issue (such as missing data, extra pupils, or incorrect column headers) you will be shown an error message with guidance to help you fix it.

You’ll see a summary of the data being uploaded. If anything doesn’t seem right, click ‘Discard’ to go back and check your file. If everything looks good, click ‘Save changes’.

Your pupils will then be listed on the Pupils tab of Infinity, along with their pupil access codes. You’re now ready to begin assigning quizzes and tracking progress!

If you have a new starter or need to update the classes for a new academic year, you can update your pupils at any time.

Click ‘Add/Update pupils’ then ‘Add/Update pupils via Excel file’.

Download and open the existing file of pupil data. Add any additional pupils, or to remove a pupil simply delete their row. For class updates, enter the new class name for each child. Save the file and return to Infinity.

Select ‘Upload Excel file’ and find your updated spreadsheet.

Once uploaded, your updated list of pupils will be displayed.

If the only change made was updating the class names, the pupils will retain their existing pupil access codes.
