      How do I add and update classes (manual method)?

      Find out how to manually move students and teachers between classes. This can be done by any teacher in the school.

      First, choose which you'd like to do

      If you would like to instead upload classes via spreadsheet, see this page for instructions.

      How to move students between classes

      1. Click 'settings' from the Teacher Dashboard
      2. Click 'manage' in the 'manage students' box
      3. Find the class you would like to move students from and click on the blue arrow next to it to reveal the names of all the students in that class.

      4. If you only want to move one student at a time, proceed to Step 6. If you would like to move multiple students at once, click 'select multiple students'.

        select multiple students

      5. Click the names of all the students you would like to move. If you would like to move all the students in the class, click 'select all'. The students you have selected to move will be highlighted

        select all

      6. Click on the name of a student you wish to move, and drag and drop them into their new class. If you selected multiple students in the previous steps, all the selected students will move together. 
      7. Click 'done'.

      Tips:

      • You can drag and drop students into the 'students without a class' folder if they have not been assigned to a class. Students in this folder are still part of the school and can be added to a class at any point. 
      • If you would like to move a student who is not currently in a class you're assigned to, make sure the filter at the top is showing 'Show my classes'. If it instead says 'Show all classes', click the text to change the filter.
