Quick answer

Go to Year Groups, open the CE tab (or SA) and select Add SA Activity (or the Community Engagement version of the button), then complete the form.

For MYP students recording Community Engagement activities and keeping them up to date.

⚠️ Service as Action is now Community Engagement

ManageBac+ now uses Community Engagement in place of Service as Action (SA). Your school may still show Service as Action or SA, as in the screenshots below. The steps are the same. If you are not sure which one your school uses, ask your coordinator.

Where to find it: Year Groups > CE (or SA)

Open your worksheet

Select Year Groups in the left menu, then the CE tab (SA at some schools). Your Worksheet lists your activities, with tabs for Documents and Notes & Interviews.

Add an activity

  1. Select Add SA Activity. If your school uses the Community Engagement name, the button uses that name instead.

  2. Choose a cover with Select Cover. If your activity is run as a group (for example a club), choose it under Select Activity From a Group.

  3. Enter the Activity Name and choose the Location: In-School or Out-of-School.

  4. Add your hours if your school asks for them, then the Start Date and End Date.

  5. Add your supervisor's name, title, email and phone number. If you chose a group, these may fill in for you.

  6. Add a Description and Goals, and the Organisation and Activity Aim if you worked with one.

  7. Tick the learning outcomes you plan to work towards.

  8. Keep the advisor email option ticked and select Add SA Activity. Your advisor is emailed to review and approve it.

The new activity appears in your Experiences list. Its status shows on the right of each activity.

Edit or delete an activity

Select the activity on your worksheet. On the Summary tab, select Edit Activity at the top right, make your changes and select Save Changes. To delete it, open the menu (three dots) next to Edit Activity and select Delete Activity.

If an activity is marked complete

A completed activity cannot be changed, and you cannot add reflections to it. Activities are often marked complete when a supervisor review is requested too early. Ask your advisor or coordinator to untick Completed on the activity, then you can update it again.
