Thank you for your feedback
The Schools menu allows you to create or edit schools within your organization. A school refers to a site that manages sets of classes and device groups independently.
Note
This menu and concept was referred to as "Locations" in previous versions of Classroom.
New accounts will have a default school called "Default School" already created. If you only have one school, you can use this default name. If you have multiple schools, you should edit the default school to become one of your school locations, then add the others.
To edit a school, click the name from the list.
To add a new school, use the Add School button, then fill in the school details.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The name of the school |
| Code | A short code to uniquely identify this school. This might be the school initials or some other code that's already used throughout other systems in the district as the unique identifier for this site. Codes may be shown during data import/export functions such as CSV user import. |
| Default class duration | This is the default class length used when running classes at this school. Choose the most common class length for this school to prevent teachers from having to change it each time they run a class. |
| Access Rights for Locations | Use the Access Rights tab to find a list of users who have rights to use this school. By default, when a user is assigned to a school (when they are created or their account is edited) they will automatically be given rights to that school. You can assign multiple users rights to a single school at once by doing it from this tab and clicking the Grant access rights button. When a user has access to a school, it will appear in their list in the Schools menu. |
| Schedule | What schedule the school uses. For more information, see the section on school schedules. |
