How to generate school leaving certificates on Sematime Academics

In Kenya, schools are expected to issue students with leaving certificates upon completion of primary school and secondary school learning stages. Creating these certificates manually for 440 Form 4 students is not something we look forward to as it takes too much time typing the details for each and getting the school principal to sign them.

Leaving certificates are academic documents issued to students after clearing school or when transferring to another school.



Sematime makes it super simple to generate hundreds of leaving certificates at a click of a button. Then has each certificate automatically signed by the head teacher/principal with the school's official stamped already inserted.

To get started, go the 'Home' view menu, select 'Tools' and then open the 'Leaving Certificates' page as shown in the image below. Click 'Generate Certificates' to get started.



In the dialog window that shows up, start by entering the students whose certificates you wish to generate - you can input specific student IDs or names or choose the whole class. Fill in the other details and then click the 'Generate' button.



Admission date - the date when the student(s) joined the school.
Admission class - the class the student(s) was admitted to when they reported to the school
Leaving date - the date when the student(s) left your school
Leaving class - the current class of the student
Date of birth - when the student was born. This can be left blank to fill in after printing.
School head's remark - the principal's or head teachers commentary about the student. This can be left blank to fill in after printing.

Once finished, you can proceed to print or download the leaving certificates for a particular list of students or even the whole class. In case you need to make changes, click 'Edit' under the 'Certificate Actions' menu bar.
