Duplicate teacher name: 'John Smith'. Teacher names must be unique.
Last updated: Mar 23, 2026
At a glance
Two teachers have the same name.
What causes this error
Teacher names are used as identifiers in the system. Two teachers with the same name cannot be distinguished, making it impossible to assign lessons correctly.
This can happen when importing data or when the same teacher is added twice.
How to fix it
Go to the Teachers section and rename or remove the duplicate. If they are genuinely different people with the same name, add a distinguishing suffix (e.g. "John Smith (Math)" and "John Smith (PE)").
