Transcripts & academic history

Where a report card covers one term, a transcript covers a learner's whole career – every year, and even multiple curricula, on a single official document. This page covers building the cumulative transcript, GPA and points, and issuing sealed official copies.

Where to find it — App drawer → Academic → Reports → Transcripts.

Transcripts & academic history in EduPrime.

How transcripts build up

Every approved report card adds a term to the learner's academic history. The transcript is the rolling summary of all those terms, so it is always current with no separate data entry. Open Academic → Transcripts and select a learner to see their full record.

  • Terms are grouped by academic year, newest or oldest first.
  • Each subject shows its grade per term and a year aggregate.
  • A cumulative figure (GPA or total points) appears at the foot.

Multi-curriculum on one document

Learners who move between streams – for example two years on a national curriculum then transferring to IB – would otherwise need separate transcripts. EduPrime renders all curricula on one document, with each period clearly labelled by the scale it used, and a key explaining each.

Tip — Because each period keeps its own scale, you never have to force-convert an old letter grade into a new system. The reader sees the original grade plus the key for that period, which is what universities and ministries expect.

GPA and points

The cumulative figure is computed from the points value on each grade (configured on the grading scale). EduPrime can show a weighted GPA, a simple mean grade, or a curriculum-specific total such as the IB /45. The calculation method is set per programme so each stream reports the figure its curriculum expects.

Issuing official copies

An official transcript is a controlled document. To issue one:

  1. Open the learner's transcript and click Issue official copy.
  2. Choose the destination – the learner, a named university, or a ministry body.
  3. EduPrime stamps the copy with an issue date, a serial number and an authenticity reference.
  4. The signed PDF is logged against the learner so you have a record of every official copy released and to whom.
Important — Only the registrar or academic head role can issue official copies. Draft transcripts shown in the portal are watermarked “unofficial” so they cannot be mistaken for a sealed copy.
