Set up a school

Set up the academic year and your first section to get your school workspace ready for teachers and learners.

Create a school

1. Open Classes and choose Set up school classes. To create a separate workspace, choose Create workspace from the workspace switcher.
2. Choose your current workspace to keep its name, admins, teachers, staff, and plan. If it has older classes, review the reset of classes, rosters, and student access before continuing. You can also create a separate workspace for another school; new workspaces start on Free.
3. In Academic year, enter a label and its start and end dates.
4. In Classes & sections, choose a grade from Class I–XII. A class with one section uses Section A; add more named sections when needed. Assign a class teacher now or later.
5. In Students, add several students in the entry table or import a CSV. Each student needs a roll number.
6. In Review, check the year, sections, and roster, then start the academic year.

After setup

The sidebar shows Classes for ongoing management. Add subjects and teaching groups after setup.

The owner occupies Free's single staff seat, so another teacher can join only after an upgrade. Instructor allows 5 teachers and Organization has no limit. Free also caps a school at 2 sections or groups with 2 students each. See all plan limits. Another school can be created from the switcher with its own plan and records.
