Team's Response

Hi, thank you for your feedback. We didn't want to make the app complex for the user to use, because allowing names of other languages makes it difficult for the user to find the student. Moreover, the namelists of students in Singapore are already stored in English, so the user can just store that instead.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.NotInScope]

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: # Reason:

• There are several form classes held for mother tongues, where teachers usually prefer to store names in Chinese and not English, so this is a feature flaw where teachers cannot add students in their preferred manner.
• Several teachers use chinese keyboards so searching would be possible too.
• It is marked as Low because not many teachers would find this inconveniencing.
