Why schools love Class Builder
Frequently asked questions
Teachers can nominate friend preferences and essential pairs per student. The algorithm aims to honour at least one requested friend for every student while preserving overall class balance. Essential pairs are always kept together; incompatibles are always separated.
Yes. Upload a CSV with student names and any existing data (academic levels, behaviour ratings, support flags) and Class Builder maps the columns for you. You can also add students manually.
Yes. Students flagged as ILP (individual learning plan) or EAL (English as an additional language) are distributed across classes so no single class carries a disproportionate load.
Each generation produces up to 5 candidate solutions, ranked by balance score. You can compare them side-by-side and export any of them.
Data is stored securely in Australia. Access is scoped to approved school domains and role-based permissions. No third parties see student records.
