# Student Archive

> Find historical student records, export archive results, and restore a learner safely.

Student Archive preserves learners who are no longer in the active student list while keeping their school history findable.

## Find an archived learner

1. Open **Students → Student Archive**.
2. Use **Archive Filter** to choose the relevant academic context.
3. Search within the returned archive.
4. Review the student's class, section, status, and archive information.

Use **Export Archive** when a permitted operator needs a copy of the filtered archive.

## Restore

Open the archived student's action and follow the restore or class-change workflow shown. Choose a compatible current class and section and review the restored student's active record.

Archiving retains a historical learner record. Deletion removes a record and can break the continuity of linked school history. Use archive for ordinary departures or completed cohorts unless the school has a valid reason and permission to delete.
