The Schools database is provided to simplify the creation of new School Organisations on the Voluntarily Platform. When a new School Ambassador is invited onto the platform Invite someone to setup a new Organisation They can pick the school from a drop down list. The data for this list is provided by an API call `api/schools`
which in turn is provided by a database collection `schoollookups`
The schema for this collection is
const schoolLookUpSchema = new Schema({ schoolId: { type: Number, required: true }, name: { type: String }, telephone: { type: String }, emailDomain: { type: String, required: true }, contactName: { type: String }, contactEmail: { type: String }, website: String, address: String, schoolType: { type: String, enum: Object.values(SCHOOL_TYPES), required: true }, decile: Number })
Instructions
If the dropdown of schools has no data, or the collection needs to be refreshed with new data then an admin must run a command line script to update the collection from an external NZ schools database API.
