In this assignment, you will create a Student Record Management System using Django. The goal is to help you understand how to implement authentication and authorization as well as CRUD functionality in a real-world web application. You will build a secure system where each student can register, log in, and manage their own personal and academic information, while an admin user (registrar) can view the records of all students through a separate dashboard. This project will give you practical experience in user management, access control, form handling, and database integration using Django.
i. Students can register, log in, and add/edit their personal records including an image and CV.
ii. A custom Registrar (Admin) can log in through a separate admin interface to view and delete all student records.
iii. The default Django admin panel should not be used for the registrar in this project.
Consider the following:
System Users & Roles Student • Registers and logs in through a student portal. • Can submit and edit their personal information. • Can upload: o A passport-sized image (JPEG or PNG) o A CV file (PDF only) • Can only Add, view, and Edit their own data. • Cannot view or delete other student records.
Registrar (Custom Admin) • Logs in through a separate admin login interface. • Can: o View all student records o Delete any student record
Information to Be Collected from Students Each student will fill and manage the following fields: • First Name • Last Name • Email Address • Residential Address • Department (should be done through select input) • Faculty (should be done through select input) • Program of Study (should be done through select input) • Academic Level (e.g., Year 1, Year 2, etc.). This should be done through a select input • Profile Picture (image upload) • CV Upload (PDF only)
I'll help you create a comprehensive Student Record Management System using Django. This system will have separate authentication for students and registrars, with proper access controls and file upload functionality.
I'll create a comprehensive Student Record Management System with Django. This system will have separate authentication for students and registrars, proper access controls, and file upload functionality.
This comprehensive Student Record Management System includes all the features you requested:

Students can register, manage their profiles, and upload documents, while registrars have full administrative access to view and manage all student records through a custom dashboard interface.
To configure the generation, complete these steps:
You're absolutely right! I need to include the manage.py file and the main project configuration files. Let me add those essential Django project files.
Perfect! Now you have all the essential Django project files including:
manage.py - Django's command-line utilitystudent_management_system/settings.py - Main project settingsstudent_management_system/urls.py - Main URL configurationstudent_management_system/wsgi.py & asgi.py - Server configurationsstudent_management/apps.py - App configurationstudent_management/management/commands/create_registrar.py - Custom management command.gitignore - Git ignore patternsSETUP_INSTRUCTIONS.md - Detailed setup guideCreate project directory:
mkdir student_management_system
cd student_management_systemRun setup:
python scripts/setup_project.pyStart server:
python manage.py runserverAccess the system:
The project is now complete with all necessary Django files and ready to run! The setup script will automatically create the Django project structure, install dependencies, run migrations, and create the default registrar account.
