The way to develop any good solid app is to start with the database,
create models, then contorllers, then views and est voila you have an
app.
At it's most simple, you should have the following tables in your
schema:
- users
- user_groups
- teachers
I would then use Auth with $this->Auth->authorize = 'controller'; and
create an isAuthorized() action in each controller to check
authorisation levels depending on a users group.
