How School Heads Can Extend Assignment Deadlines or Close Submissions
When unexpected weather disruptions or sports days occur, waiting for individual teachers to update assignment deadlines causes student panic.
Inflexible deadline management creates student anxiety during events
If a sports tournament keeps half the class away from school, administrators need the power to adjust assignment due dates centrally.
Modify due dates and submission windows on the assignment settings card
Open the target assignment in the institutional management portal.
Click Edit Settings on the administrative panel.
Adjust the Due Date and Time to grant an extension across the cohort.
Alternatively, close submissions permanently once the final deadline passes.
Put it into practice
Example: Extending a project deadline during annual sports day
An admin extends a history project deadline by two days for all participating athletes, preventing unfair late flags during the school festival.
