How to Lock Four Year Plans

Four Year Plans (FYP) are important in planning a student's future. It should be a collaboration between students, guardians, and educators when creating the plan and as students follow the path. To that end, we allow an educator to Lock a student's Primary FYP when all the collaborators believe they have established an appropriate primary plan.  

Having a student come to the educator to request the plan be unlocked allows the educator to engage in a conversation that can help guide the student as they make changes.  The educator can then bring the guardian into the discussion as well.  Administrators may view the courses students are planning to take next year. If most student plans are locked, the data is more likely to be accurate.

As we all know, FYPs are a multi-step process and thus should be viewed and updated as the years progress, so we've ensured educators have ways of unlocking multiple student FYPs.
