School Settings is the page where an administrator maintains the school’s profile information and two operational toggles that change how PACE progression and goal approval work. It lives at /settings/school.

​
Who can access this page

Only the administrator role can open /settings/school. Supervisors, monitors, teaching staff, parents, and students who navigate to this URL are redirected to the dashboard. Saving changes calls updateSchoolProfile, which is gated on the settings:edit_org permission, currently granted only to the administrator permission bundle.
If you have not completed the initial setup wizard yet, some of these same fields (school name, city, country, timezone, language) were first entered there. School Settings is where you come back to change them afterward.

Open School Settings

Sign in as an administrator and go to /settings/school.
2

Update the profile fields

Edit school name, city, country, contact email, contact phone, timezone, and language as needed.
3

Adjust the two toggles

Set Auto-advance PACEs on completion and Require goal approval in the Ritual to match how your school operates. See the sections below.
4

Save

Saving updates the school profile immediately. If the “school_profile” step on your getting-started checklist was still open, saving here also ticks it off.

​
Auto-advance PACEs on completion

This toggle controls what happens when a student finishes a PACE in a subject.
StateBehaviour
Off (default)Zion shows a one-click suggestion for the next PACE in that subject. A monitor or supervisor confirms it.
OnZion automatically assigns the next PACE in that subject as soon as the current one is marked complete, with no confirmation step.
Turn this on if your school wants PACE sequencing to move forward without a manual confirmation each time. Leave it off if you want a monitor or supervisor to review and confirm the next assignment before it starts.

​
Require goal approval in the Ritual

This toggle controls how goals entered during the Morning Ritual are treated.
StateBehaviour
Off (default)Goals entered in the Ritual go live immediately.
OnGoals entered in the Ritual start in a pending state and require a supervisor or administrator to sign off before they count.
Turning this on adds a sign-off step to goal entry, useful where a school wants separation of duties or an audit trail between what a student proposes and what a supervisor approves. Turning it off means goals are usable as soon as they are entered.
Both toggles are org-wide. Every learning centre and every student in the school follows whichever setting is currently saved here, there is no per-centre or per-student override.
