Creating and managing classes

On the Class management page (in the Teacher menu, under Management) you can create new classes, see the details of existing ones and make changes.

Opening a new class

The New class button is at the top of the page, and also on All classes. A teacher can open classes only while belonging to a paying school, and up to 10 classes at a time in each school, not counting archived classes. Teachers who work in several schools choose the school at the top of the page, and the new class belongs to the school chosen there.

The new class is added to the class table; its registration code (the Code column) is unique to each class. You send the code and the join link to students through Invite students in the class's ⋯ actions menu.

At any time you can edit the class's name and level, through Edit class in the class's ⋯ actions menu. We recommend archiving old classes (Archive in the same menu). Archived classes are hidden from the table; to see them, tick Show archived classes, and they appear greyed out at the bottom of the table. All their data and reports stay available, but students can't join the class and it can't be given new tasks. Classes can't be deleted.

Classes that continue into another school year

If a class continues from year to year without major changes in its students, we recommend keeping the same class in the system, so you can see the students' work across the whole period. A school administrator in the system can replace a class's teacher or add one, through Manage teachers in the class's ⋯ actions menu.

For new classes with students who have already worked in the system, we recommend moving the students' accounts from the old classes to the new ones (Move to class, explained on the managing student accounts page), rather than having students open new accounts. You can see the tasks students solved in their old classes by opening the Student report and choosing the previous class, but they won't appear in the new class's Tasks.
