I register students with planned graduation date. This makes it easy to move the student out
the year of graduation.

Dear Community,
Here comes a non-technical question!
I have some customers who are school libraries, and I'm wonder what is
the best way to register pupils as patrons.
I'm thinking sometimes it will be interesting to be able to group them
by the year they are in (1. year, 2. year etc), and sometimes it will
be interesting to group them by the class they are in (in Norway these
will typically be called 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B etc).
I'm also thinking that during summer it will be useful to batch delete
all the pupils who left at the end of the spring semester.
And of course, every summer all the pupils who have not left will have
to be shifted up one class. So maybe it's better to avoid the classes
alltogether and use the year they enrolled for something?
One of the libraries in question has created patron categories based
on class, so they have patron types called 1A, 1B etc - I'm not sure
what they plan to do when everyone gets shifted up one class at the
end of the spring semester... ;-)
So again: How are y'all registering pupils in Koha?
Best regards,
Magnus Enger
