How to Create Curriculum Groups

Create the streams inside an education level — and use a catch-all group for subjects shared across all of them.


A group is a stream inside an education level — Science and Commerce under HSC, or BCS and Bank Job under Job Preparation. Subjects attach to groups, so you need at least one before you can add subjects.

The Groups tab with the Create Group dialog open

Open Curriculum from the left sidebar under Content, then the Groups tab.


Reading the List

The heading counts them — Groups (4) — and the table shows:

Column What it shows
Name The group's name, such as BCS
Description Your note, or a dash
Education Level A grey badge with the parent level's slug, such as job-preparation
Order Display-order number
Created When it was added
Actions Three-dot menu with Edit and Delete

The All Education Levels dropdown at the top right narrows the list to one level — useful once you have several.


Creating a Group

Click + Add Group to open Create GroupAdd a new group to your organization's education system.

You can also create one in place from Tree View: click + group on any education level's row, and the parent is filled in for you.

Name (required)Enter group name. Use the stream name your students know: Science, BCS, Bank Job.

Education Level (required) — pick the parent from Select education level. This is the one field people miss; a group cannot exist without a level, and you will see Please select an education level if you skip it.

Description (optional) — a note for your team, such as Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS) examination preparation.

Order (optional) — lower numbers appear first. Numbering as you go keeps every dropdown in a sensible order.

Click Create Group. You will see Group created successfully.


A Group for Shared Subjects

Some subjects belong to every stream — General English, General Knowledge. Rather than duplicating them, create a catch-all group such as All Subjects and attach the shared subjects there once.

You can see this pattern in the example above: All Subjects sits at order 0 alongside BCS, Bank Job and Primary & NTRCA, described as a global group covering all common subjects.


Editing and Deleting

Edit from the three-dot menu changes the name, description, order and parent level.

Delete removes the group and its subjects — and, through them, their chapters and topics. Course37 lists what depends on the group before you confirm, then reports BCS and 12 associated subject(s) deleted successfully.

Questions are tagged to subjects, chapters and topics. Deleting a populated group therefore affects those questions and any exam built from them.


Troubleshooting
