The top row in the Markbook Grid has been removed and replaced by tooltips.

The Name column and the top two rows are now frozen (that is: on scrolling left to right or top to bottom, the headers are still visible).

The following Student Circle logic now applies:

• If a teacher has been allocated to a UIO and is linked to a specific tutor group, then when a learner is allocated to that tutor group, the teacher is associated to the learner in their student circle
• If the learner is not in a tutor group, all staff linked to the UIO are displayed
• If no UIO tutor groups exist, all staff linked to the UIO are displayed

For tutors assigned to one tutor group (that is: with a relationship type of ILP Staff or Tutor), the group filter now defaults to the tutor's tutor group on the Courses tab of the ILP window.

The group filter defaults to 'All Groups' for tutors with multiple tutor groups.
