I'm running version 2.1 on Ubuntu 12.04, but I think that the situation
you reproduced is not exactly the same:
- I have no accent on the yearschool
- I used ISO-8859-1 with same result
- I tried to load both CSV and on the screen without any accent with the
same result.

I figured out the problem: I entered "Año 2013" for the school year's
name. It seems that the "ñ" is the issue. I created a new schoolyear,
named only "2013" and I succeeded to load a CSV both from file and in
the screen manually.
Thanks for your time
