It is designed for large-scale assessments and can save considerable time when many schools are involved.<\/p>\n<p>When creating a new project, can now choose between two types:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Manual Entry:<\/strong> You add each school, survey and location manually, and enter the coding attributes directly on the SR4S platform.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bulk Upload:<\/strong> You upload multiple school, survey, location and coding records using the <strong>provided CSV templates<\/strong> (see the download link below). In a Bulk Upload project, you <strong>cannot <\/strong>add or edit school, survey or location information directly on the SR4S platform. <strong>All additions and updates must be made through the CSV file.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bulk Upload is particularly useful for projects with 20 or more schools, although any SR4S user can create one, even for a single school. Users should choose carefully, because a project cannot be switched between the two types once it is created. In a Bulk Upload project, all additions and updates must also be made through the CSV file, not directly on the platform.<\/p>\n<p>iRAP recommends a four-step workflow for a \u201cBulk Upload\u201d project:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Step 1: Arrange a quality review (outside the SR4S platform): <\/strong>Contact iRAP or an <a href=\"https:\/\/starratingforschools.org\/training-and-accreditation\/\">accredited quality reviewer<\/a> to arrange a quality review of your data. This service may incur a cost, which should be factored into your project budget.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Step 2: Prepare your CSV file and submit it for quality review (outside the SR4S platform): <\/strong>Prepare your data using the provided CSV template and share it with iRAP or the accredited quality reviewer, following the arrangements agreed in Step 1.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Step 3: Create a Bulk Upload project and upload your CSV file (within the SR4S platform): <\/strong>Create a \u201cBulk Upload\u201d project on the SR4S platform and upload the CSV file to run the validation check and process the star ratings.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Step 4: Review the validation results and obtain star ratings (primarily within the SR4S platform)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>If your file <u>passes the validation check<\/u>, the star ratings for each location will be displayed on the SR4S platform.<\/li>\n<li>If your file <u>does not pass the validation check<\/u>, review the validation report, correct the relevant coding, and re-upload the updated CSV file. Repeat this process until the file successfully passes validation and the star ratings are generated.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To help users prepare, iRAP has published a Frequently Asked Questions guide and a short video walkthrough of the upgrade.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/downloads.starratingforschools.org\/Useful_Resources\/SR4S_Bulk_Upload_Project_FAQ.pdf\"><strong>Read the FAQ here<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/rknr7gNLoMs\"><strong>Watch the video here<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/seafile.irap.org\/d\/dee78fc9e01445258f27\/\">Download all bulk upload templates here<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Questions?
