Do we have to enter every student again?
Not necessarily. If your school already has usable student records in Excel, CSV or another export, SEAC can prepare those records for import instead of requiring every student to be typed again.
Moving to SEAC
Bring your existing school records with you.
Moving to a new school system should not mean typing every student again. SEAC can help schools prepare, validate and move existing records into the new school environment before go-live.
Before you move
What happens to your existing records when you move to SEAC?
Existing data can often be moved instead of re-entered, but migration depends on the format and quality of the records the school already has.
Can SEAC import Excel or CSV data?
Yes, where the file structure and data quality are suitable. The records are mapped and checked before import rather than being uploaded blindly.
What happens before imported records go live?
The migration scope is agreed first, required fields are checked, obvious duplicates or data-quality issues are reviewed, and sample records and totals are verified after import.
Can historical results be migrated?
Historical results can be handled as a separate migration project where needed. The exact scope depends on the format, completeness and quality of the school's existing records.
Migration process
A controlled move, not a blind upload.
The goal is to know what is being moved, check it before import and verify it afterwards. That reduces surprises when the school starts using SEAC for real work.
01
Share your existing records
We confirm what you already have in Excel, CSV or another export and agree the first migration scope.
02
Review and validate
Columns are mapped, required information is checked and obvious duplicates or data-quality problems are identified before import.
03
Import into your school
Approved records are imported into the correct SEAC school environment using the SIS import workflow.
04
Verify before go-live
SEAC and the school spot-check totals and sample records before the migrated data is treated as ready for live use.
First migration scope
Start with the records needed to operate the school.
Historical results can be handled as a separate migration project where needed. They do not have to delay the first operational go-live.
Students and admission details
Guardians and family links where available
Staff and initial user records
Classes and basic academic structure
Opening fee balances and arrears
The exact migration scope depends on the quality and format of the school's existing records. SEAC confirms the scope before importing live data.
