That's exactly it. Thank you!
I'll do it.
What does that bit of rendering code look like. How do I keep the
@cohort.pupils bit but tell it to go to the different directory?
At the moment it looks like this and points to the pupils directory:
<div id="pupils">
<%= render :partial => @cohort.pupils %>
</div>
I'm aware this should be obvious but I don't understand the API docs
on this.
