Subject

Subjects represent the courses taught in your school (e.g., Mathematics, Physics, English). Each subject is linked to a Medium, has a type (Theory or Practical), and includes a visual icon and background color for identification throughout the system.

Prerequisites

Before creating subjects, ensure you have at least one Medium configured.
