What is Subject Management
The subjects are a core area of any school or a course. Every class or course has subjects. Faculties teach these Subjects and, are assigned to a specific Course and, a Batch.
The details managed by a Subject.
Name. A subject requires a meaningful name. For example, Piano for Kids.
Subject Code. A shortcode for the Subject is defined with a predefined pattern.
Type. A Type has three values; they are Theory, Practical, and, both.
Subject Type. A subject Type can be used to define to be either Compulsory or Elective.
Grade Weightage. This will be a value to scale the Grade.
Parent Subject. We can assign another subject to be treated as a parent subject. This is optional.
Information! It is a best practice to follow a standard coding system to keep consistent definitions. A code also helps to easily identify the subject.Read: How to install GitHub Desktop to simplify your development workflow
