Importing Staff photos

[mrhall]

School photographers last week - just enjoyed the importing process for students 1200 photos in next to no time (and only 10 "unknown" which a few staff found for me this morning.

 

Is there a batch way to upload staff?  Or does this have to be one at a time?

Thanks

Sadly - that is one member of staff at a time - which is fine.  But really hard going!   I've got 140 to do.

 

But does appear there isn't a bulk upload like there is for students (1450 students in 5 minutes)

 

Thanks for sharing this.

Is that massive staff changeover or do staff alter their appearance over the summer holidays in the hope of avoiding 9B?

 

We do new staff and a quick "does this still look like Bob?" test for existing staff, unless someone really doesn't like their current picture.

We should probably do just that...  I think historically we've done all of them (hopefully not my job!)

No bulk method in SIMS, but we have a trainee and she blasted through 80 odd in about an hour.

 

Get someone to name the photos first (someone who recognises the staff is a good start :))
